Kilchoman Fino Sherry Cask Matured

LIMIT 1 PER PERSON/HOUSEHOLD. NO EXCEPTIONS. The 2023 Fino Sherry Cask Matured limited edition is a vatting of 20 Fino Sherry Butts, previously used by Bodega Jose y Miguel Martin (Spain). This Kilchoman spirit has matured fully, for a minimum of five years in Fino. During its maturation, the spirit has developed a dry salinity which is balanced with a green fresh fruit influence and elongated delicate peat smoke. Fino sherry is a light, dry type of Sherry, originating from the Jerez region in southern Spain, and is made from the Palomino grape variety. Due to Fino being more delicate than Oloroso or Pedro Ximénez, the grapes used to produce Fino are grown in top-quality soils such as the chalky albariza marls. The casks used during this ageing process are American oak butts which are stored using the traditional solera system in the bodega, and the average maturation sits between 4 – 7 years. When using these casks for maturing Kilchoman’s whisky, flavour profiles of yeast, dough and almonds can easily be identified while also providing a rich saline profile with hints of fresh herbs.
