Celebrate Kilchoman’s spirit of experimentation with the Kilchoman 7 Year Old – 2018 UK-Exclusive Single Cask, STR/New French Oak #238. Distilled from 100 % Islay-grown barley and filled into an STR-treated new French-oak cask (shaved, toasted & re-charred) #238, the whisky slumbered beside Machir Bay for seven years before being drawn at natural cask strength in April 2025. Bottled non-chill-filtered and natural in colour, only 280 bottles were reserved exclusively for the UK market. Expect classic Kilchoman coastal smoke super-charged with waves of vanilla cream, toasted spice and sweet red-berry depth from the freshly rejuvenated French oak.
