Celebrate five years of exceptional craftsmanship with the Kilchoman Islay Series Vineyard Fifth Anniversary Edition—a special release bottled exclusively for the Vineyard Series (2021–2025). Distilled on August 7, 2019, and bottled on June 4, 2025, this limited edition Islay single malt Scotch whisky is matured in STR/New Oak casks and bottled at a bold 58.7% ABV, offering a full-bodied, non-chill filtered expression with no added color.
This release showcases the robust maritime character of Islay, complemented by the rich sweetness and complexity imparted by shaved, toasted, and re-charred oak. As a small-batch bottling from Islay’s farm distillery, it represents Kilchoman’s dedication to traditional methods and bold experimentation.
