Kilchoman Loch Gorm Scotch Whisky 2022 Edition

🌫️ Kilchoman Loch Gorm 2022 Edition — A Smoky Sherry-Soaked Masterpiece

Limited Release | Oloroso Sherry Cask Matured | Islay Single Malt | 46% ABV

The Loch Gorm 2022 Edition is Kilchoman’s annual tribute to Islay’s peaty soul and sherried elegance. Matured in 22 Oloroso sherry butts—20 fresh and 2 refill—from Bodega José y Miguel Martín, this release showcases a blend of casks aged between 8 to 14 years, delivering a beautifully balanced dram of rich fruit, coastal smoke, and citrus brightness.

🔥 Tasting Notes

• Nose: Sweet pipe smoke, ripe strawberries, candied lemon peel, and orange blossom
• Palate: Dark chocolate, toasted walnuts, tobacco smoke, caramel, dates, and earthy peat
• Finish: Lingering cinnamon, liquorice, and coastal umami with a smooth, smoky fade

🏷️ Highlights

• Region: Islay, Scotland
• ABV: 46% (92 Proof)
• Cask Type: Oloroso sherry butts (20 fresh, 2 refill)
• Style: Non-chill filtered, natural color
• Distillery: Kilchoman — farm-to-bottle craftsmanship

💎 Why It Stands Out

This 2022 release marks a turning point in the Loch Gorm series, combining the fresh vibrancy of younger casks with the layered complexity of older stock. The result is a bold yet refined Islay single malt that’s perfect for collectors and fans of the peat-sherry fusion Kilchoman does so well.

🎯 Perfect For

• Lovers of sherried Islay Scotch whisky
• Pairing with smoked meats, dark chocolate, or aged cheeses
• Gifting to whisky enthusiasts who appreciate limited edition releases
