More Gold Awards! Machir Bay & Sanaig: Award Winning Whiskies
May 11, 2022We are delighted to share the news that Machir Bay and Sanaig have both been awarded gold medals in the International Spirits Challenge 2022.
Named after the stunning beach next to the distillery, Machir Bay is a vatting of Kilchoman matured in approximately 90% bourbon barrels and 10% oloroso sherry. The high proportion of bourbon barrels creates a distinct balance of classic Islay character and fresh floral complexity.
Sanaig, named after an inlet on Islay’s rugged Atlantic coast, is a vatting of Kilchoman matured in both sherry and bourbon barrels.

Machir Bay and Sanaig are both part of our core range and are available throughout the world.
