One of four special releases in the Kilchoman 20th Anniversary Casks Series, each a vatting of five specially selected casks. This very special 100% Islay expression has been created from five ex-sherry butts all matured in 2011 and matured for 14 years. The 20th Anniversary Casks Series highlights the two distinct sides of Kilchoman's unique character, ex-bourbon and ex-sherry cask maturation.
