Kilchoman 2007 Vintage
the oldest expression of Kilchoman to be
released to date.
 On
the 7th October Islay’s independent farm distillery,
Kilchoman, is to release its oldest
whisky to date. Only 10,000 bottles of
the limited edition 2007 Vintage will be
made available worldwide and it is
expected to sell quickly.
With a smoky vanilla and caramel nose
with cooked lemon and citrus fruits, the
2007 Vintage is smooth in the mouth with
hints of butterscotch and soft citrus
fruit, complimented by a lasting
sweetness that blends with the peaty and
fruity finish.
Anthony Wills, managing director of
Kilchoman, said: "This is an exciting
development and sees us enter a
long-awaited period in our history.
Although we’re a relatively young
distillery our Vintage six-year-old
shows a level of maturity normally
associated with much older whisky. We
predict that this will sell quickly and
hope Kilchoman followers share in our
excitement in the development of our
malt."
Kilchoman’s portfolio now includes
Machir Bay, Loch Gorm and a new edition
of 100% Islay which is the only Single
Malt in Scotland where every stage of
the whisky making process, from the
barley grown in the surrounding fields
to the malting, distillation, maturation
and bottling, takes place at the
distillery.
With an ambition to take whisky
production back to its traditional
roots, Anthony Wills built and founded
Kilchoman Distillery in 2005 on a farm
situated on the rugged west coast of
Islay. The first distillery on the
island for 124 years, Kilchoman is one
of the smallest distilleries in Scotland
and one of only a handful left that
still practise the traditional floor
malting method.
The 2007 Vintage bottled at 46% ABV will
be available from
specialist whisky shops, with an RRP of
£52.99, 70cl.
