BATCH STRENGTH ASIA TOUR 2024
August 23, 2024We are bringing BATCH STRENGTH, our new ‘colossal’ core expression, to ASIA!
Following on from the success of our European Batch Strength Tour, we can’t wait to make our way around Asia over the coming months.
We will be visiting 9 regions over 6 weeks, starting in Japan on September 16th before travelling on to Taiwan, Hong Kong, Thailand, Singapore, Malaysia, Indonesia, China and South Korea.
The Batch Strength release is the latest addition to our core range. Matured in a combination of re-charred red wine casks, oloroso sherry butts and bourbon barrels, a few drops of water were added post maturation to produce a Batch Strength of 57% vol. The result is a colossal dram combining the natural peat smoke and citrus character of Kilchoman with dark fruits, rich spices and salted caramel sweetness.
Like our bull Rory, BATCH STENGTH typifies the rugged power and intensity of Kilchoman. It possesses all the character that typifies a classic Kilchoman; fresh, vibrant peat smoke, citrus sweetness and a balance of fruit and spices. However, with the influence of re-charred red wine casks, there is an abundance of red fruits and caramel, and at 57% vol. rather than the standard 46%, it has a weight and power that makes you stand up and take notice.
On the Asia Batch Strength Tour we will be bringing along our special Tour Edition bottles – same delicious whisky but with a special label and carton design, available exclusively at tour stops.
Come along to an event near you to sample our latest core range expression, meet the team, hear some stories of life at Kilchoman, share a few great whiskies and have some fun. We’re also bringing a few treats from Scotland for you to take home with you!
