Kilchoman sources every Loch Gorm cask from a single bodega, José Miguel Martín, selecting a combination of oloroso butts and hogsheads for two styles of maturation. The 2023 Edition is a vatting of just 22 casks distilled in 2013, 2014 and 2015, peated to around 50 ppm.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe ex-oloroso casks impart heavy sherry notes, spicy dark chocolate, rich fruit and burnt sugar, balanced by Kilchoman's peat smoke and citrus. The nose offers cacao with an essence of leather, black cherry and light smoke. The palate brings roasted hazelnuts, dark chocolate and roasted dark fruits, giving way to light ashy peat smoke, and the finish is balanced and long, with fresh Islay sea breeze.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePresented in Kilchoman's black gift box, it makes a superb gift for peated sherry cask lovers.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eEnjoy it neat or with a drop of water.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eScotch whisky must be distilled and matured in Scotland for at least three years in oak casks, and any age statement on the label refers to the youngest whisky in the bottle.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eTasting Notes\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNose:\u003c\/strong\u003e Cacao, leather, black cherry and light smoke.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePalate:\u003c\/strong\u003e Roasted hazelnuts, dark chocolate, roasted dark fruits and ashy peat.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinish:\u003c\/strong\u003e Balanced and long, with Islay sea breeze.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProducer:\u003c\/strong\u003e Kilchoman Distillery\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStyle:\u003c\/strong\u003e Islay Single Malt Scotch Whisky, peated\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eExpression \/ Batch:\u003c\/strong\u003e Loch Gorm 2023 Edition, 22 casks\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProof \/ ABV:\u003c\/strong\u003e 92 proof (46% ABV)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCask \/ Finish:\u003c\/strong\u003e Oloroso sherry butts and hogsheads (José Miguel Martín)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRegion:\u003c\/strong\u003e Islay, Scotland\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSize:\u003c\/strong\u003e 750ml\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow to Enjoy It\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eServe it neat or with a drop of water.
