The Islay based Kilchoman Distillery, has announced the launch
of a new Batch Strength core range release.
Kilchoman Batch Strength (57% ABV) is a peated single malt
Scotch whisky, which has been matured in a combination of re-charred Red Wine
casks, Oloroso Sherry butts and Bourbon barrels.

This latest release which will join Kilchoman’s Machir Bay and Sanaig core range bottlings, is said to deliver notes of red fruits, fresh cherries, heather blossom and intense peat smoke on the nose. Followed by notes of toffee, rich spices, vanilla and peat smoke on the palate.
Commenting on the launch, Anthony Wills, Kilchoman Founder,
said: “At 57% vol, Batch Strength is a giant of a dram, it has a raw intensity,
that I love. But importantly, that power is balanced by a delicacy and finesse
that speaks for the quality of our production processes in the stillhouse and
also the quality of casks used for maturation.”
Kilchoman Batch Strength, will be available later this month
from specialist retailers, for a RRP of £76.00.
