Review by Kilchoman

Note

Sanaig, a small rocky inlet located north of the distillery and is the name given to the latest addition to the Kilchoman core range. Sanaig has a prodominantly Oloroso sherry cask influence. These aged Oloroso casks contribute a drastically transformed depth of colour and character compared to the mostly Bourbon cask matured Machir Bay.

A beautiful marriage of bourbon and sherry maturation balanced with classic Islay peat smoke and light citrus sweetness John MacLellan, Distillery Manager.

Awarded Best Single Malt Scotch Whisky - Non Age Statement at the IWSC 2016.
