Sixth sample of a 7 part Kilchoman (custom) sample set my wife got me for my birthday. Kilchoman must definitely be the distillery I’ve tasted the most expressions off by now, but so far I’ve yet to try one that failed to impress. This Red Wine Maturation again is great. One the nose, a earthy, meaty smoke is accompanied with some fruity tones. The palate is also sweet, and round, and reminds me of steak and wine. Doh. Combined with a medium aftertaste dram this Kilchoman scores a solid 4 stars for me. Being very much into all things Italy, it makes me wonder how a Kilchoman matured in Bolgherian Sassicaia wine barrels would be.
