Originating from Kilchoman's early private cask sales program, this 70cl bottling was non-chill filtered and bottled at a natural cask strength of 56.3% ABV. Typical of Kilchoman’s heavily peated Islay profile combined with 10 years of ex-bourbon maturation, it offers classic notes of smouldering peat smoke, maritime sea salt, bright citrus, vanilla, and sweet malted barley. One of 238 bottles.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eKilchoman, which came online in 2005, was the first distillery to be built on Islay for 124 years - and it has garnered a sterling reputation in its short lifespan. In particular, the use of a forward-thinking yet expensive wood policy has meant they have achieved a quality mature period at an early stage by using a high standard of cask. With everything being carried out on site, from floor maltings, distilling and maturation to bottling, it is now one of the largest private employers on Islay. There is some evidence to suggest that Islay, and specifically the Kilchoman parish, was where the first distillation in Scotland occurred as the MacBeatha family settled there in 1300 translating medical texts on distillation from Latin to Gaelic.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhisky Specifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCategory: \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.oldandrarewhisky.co.uk\/collections\/single-malt-scotch-whisky\"\u003eSingle Malt Scotch Whisky\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCountry\/Region: Scotland, Islay\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDistillery: \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.oldandrarewhisky.co.uk\/collections\/kilchoman\"\u003eKilchoman\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEdition: Private Cask\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDistillation Year: 2007\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLimited Edition: 238 bottles\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCask Type: Boubon Cask\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAlcohol Strength (ABV): 56.3%\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBottle Size: 70cl\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePlease note - Some creasing on the box, see photos.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Old and Rare Whisky","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56409877021051,"sku":null,"price":95.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2132\/8663\/files\/kilchoman-2007-private-cask-1.1.jpg?v=1788859879","url":"https:\/\/www.oldandrarewhisky.co.uk\/products\/kilchoman-2007-single-cask-234-caraidean-bho-oxelosund-single-malt-scotch-whisky-70cl-56-3-abv","provider":"Old and Rare Whisky","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
