NEW RELEASES

Loch Gorm 2016

April 20, 2016

The 2016 edition of Loch Gorm is now available! Loch Gorm is located to the north of the distillery and is very dark and peaty in colour, similar to the dark rich colour of our sherry cask matured single malt.

Loch Gorm has been part of our range since it was first introduced in 2012 and is the only release matured exclusively in oloroso sherry casks. This edition of Loch Gorm is limited to just 17 casks worldwide and was selected from a combination of fresh and refill oloroso sherry butts over six years of age, the oldest release of Loch Gorm to date. The added maturation and combination of fresh and refill sherry casks provide a balance of powerful rich flavours, spicy notes and peat smoke.

The updated packaging for the 2016 release features stunning views over Loch Gorm, just a short distance from the distillery gates.

Anthony Wills, Kilchoman Founder and Managing Director; “The whole range is developing year on year and it is exciting to release the next evolution of Loch Gorm. Maturation exclusively in oloroso sherry butts has given this release a beautiful balance of big, rich sherry flavours, smoke and softer fruits typical of Kilchoman.”

Slainte!
