Kilchoman Distillery has thrilled whisky enthusiasts with the release of their limited edition Sanaig Cask Strength for 2024, following the resounding success of their Machir Bay Cask Strength offering. This new expression showcases the beloved Sanaig at its natural, uncut strength, allowing connoisseurs to experience the full intensity of its flavor profile.
- Bottled at a robust 57.8% ABV
- Limited number of bottles available
- Utilizes the same recipe as the regular Sanaig
- Combines oloroso sherry hogshead finishes and fully matured casks
The Sanaig Cask Strength 2024 exemplifies Kilchoman’s commitment to quality and consistency. Sourcing their sherry casks exclusively from José y Miguel Martín, the distillery ensures a dependable flavor profile that truly shines at this higher strength. The result is a whisky that boasts an impressive balance of rich peat smoke and sweet cooked fruits, culminating in a deep, long-lasting, and glutinous finish.
Anthony Wills, Kilchoman’s founder, expresses his enthusiasm for this release: “Sanaig at cask strength has a fantastic balance of cooked fruits and richness from the oloroso sherry hogsheads with warming peat smoke. Since its addition to the core range in 2016, Sanaig has grown in popularity, and at its natural strength, it allows the nose and palate to shine even brighter.”
