Kilchoman Port Cask Matured - AW Tasting Notes
Nose: Sweet perfumed smoke, big rush of lemon peel, stewed plum, wild raspberry, redcurrants, milk chocolate and nutmeg combined with a touch of eucalyptus and slight earth notes lingering...
Palate: Malty-peat smoke, ashy, finding it not as fragrant as the nose...Lemon citrus coming through along with mixed berries, overripe strawberries and nutty chocolate - Mouth coated with ash in a really good way...beautiful!
Finish: Big finish. Slightly chewy, the peat smoke just keeps on coming with citrus peel and hints of red berries lingering in the background.
Comments: Another absolutely fantastic release from Kilchoman distillery. Can't get enough of this dram. Shame it's now all sold out!
