Description
Created from the same recipe of casks as Kilchomans regular Sanaig release, Sanaig Cask Strength was matured predominantly in oloroso sherry casks. However, instead of adding water once the casks have been selected and vatted, this limited edition Sanaig Cask Strength has been bottled at its natural cask strength of 57.8% alc./vol. The result is an intense combination of rich peat smoke, cinnamon sweetness, and stoned fruits with waves of citrus, mixed spices, and dark chocolate.
Sanaig is a rocky inlet just north of the distillery and is the name given to their predominantly sherry cask influenced core expression, a vatting of 70% oloroso sherry casks and 30% bourbon barrels.
Nose:Toffee sweetness and dark fruits with red berries and smoked oak.
Palate:Intense sweetness and spiced dark chocolate with raisins, liquorice and warming rich peat smoke.
Finish:Lingering sweetness and spices with integrated smoke throughout.
Alc: 57,8%
Bottle Size: 750ml
