Kilchoman 14 Year Old Family Series 1st Edition is a remarkable 100% Islay single malt Scotch whisky, released in 2026 as part of the inaugural Kilchoman Family Series. Distilled in 2011 using Rockside Farm barley, grown and malted entirely on-site at Kilchoman Distillery, this exceptional expression has been peated to 20ppm and matured exclusively in bourbon casks. Bottled at 50.9% ABV, it showcases the purity of Kilchoman’s farm-to-bottle philosophy and the elegance of long bourbon cask maturation.
As one of Kilchoman’s celebrated 100% Islay releases, every stage of production—from growing the barley to distillation, maturation, and bottling—takes place on Islay. The moderate peat level allows the character of the locally grown barley to shine, while 14 years in bourbon casks develop layers of creamy vanilla, orchard fruits, citrus zest, honeyed malt, and gentle oak spice. The result is a beautifully balanced whisky that captures both the terroir of Islay and the distinctive house style of Kilchoman.
