The Madeira Cask Matured limited edition was distilled in May 2015 and matured for 5 years 3 months in 46 fresh madeira hogsheads before being bottled at 50% abv in August 2021
“Kilchoman really lends itself to maturation in fortified wine casks. The rich fruity character of the casks balances nicely with the creamy citrus sweetness of Kilchoman. My preference when using wine casks has always been to use fresh first fill barrels with a view to bottling the whisky relatively young. This approach means the lighter clean flavours and fresh maritime peat smoke aren’t overwelmed by the cask influence”
- Anthony Wills, Kilchoman Founder
