Three years on from the last Machir Bay Cask Strength release, the 2025 Edition has arrived and it’s every bit worth the wait. A powerful expression of Kilchoman’s signature style, this is Machir Bay in full flight: young, heavily peated and bottled straight from the cask. If Machir Bay is the distillery’s classic introduction, this cask strength edition is its untamed sibling, the same DNA, just dialled all the way up.
