Kilchoman Loch Gorm 2022 edition (46%)

Loch Gorm is the name given to the annual sherry-matured limited edition. Named after Islay's largest freshwater lake adjacent to the distillery, the dark, murky colour of the lake's waters is reflected in the rich copper tones of this sherry-aged Loch Gorm release.

Flavour note:
Scent: Intense sweet pipe smoke, followed by waves of freshly cut strawberries and candied lemon peel. Lighter notes of Neroli (orange blossom), soft toffee and clove.
Palate: An initial recognition of dark chocolate and toasted walnuts, soft tobacco smoke, hints of caramel and dates accompanied by subtle warm peat smoke.
Finish: Long and lingering with cinnamon and liquorice, bitter chocolate and lingering earthy smoke.
