Kilchoman,
has the perfect present for whisky
enthusiasts this Christmas.
 Are you looking for a Christmas gift
idea for a Scotch Malt Whisky enthusiast
friend or relative, well if they have a
taste for the peaty Islay style of
whiskies then Islay’s independent farm
distillery, Kilchoman, has the perfect
gift for you to buy.
An exclusive gift pack which features a
70cl bottle of Machir Bay 2013 and two
Glencairn tasting glasses from which to
savour the mixed fruits and vanilla
tones of the celebrated whisky during
the festive season.
Machir Bay is a vatting of four and five
year old ex-bourbon casks, with the
four-year casks being finished in
Oloroso sherry butts for four weeks
prior to bottling. Bottled once a year,
each release contains more mature casks
allowing Kilchoman fans to follow the
development of the unique malt as it
matures.
First launched in 2012, Machir Bay has
since won several prestigious awards
including IWSC 2012 Gold Medal – Best in
Class and Whisky of the Year at the
International Whisky Competition.
Kilchoman’s portfolio now includes
Machir Bay, Loch Gorm, 100% Islay and
its oldest whisky to date 2007 Vintage
of which there are only 10,000 bottles
available worldwide.
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 Kilchoman Machir Bay 2013 was bottled at 46% ABV and is currently available from
The Whisky Exchange priced at £45.45
