Kilchoman Islay Pipe Band 2016 Release

One of only 272 bottles available.
A special bottling by Kilchoman, as they sponsor the Islay Pipe Band.
Not strictly a Feis Ile bottling, but that's when it is released each year - hence why we've added it into the Feis Ile 2016 list.

Cask type Bourbon
Cask 689/2011.
Distilled 11.11.2011.
Bottled 11.05.2016 at a whopping 59.5% vol
These bottles were only available from the Distillery throughout Feis Ile 2016 week.

Colour - Dried bracken in the late summer.
Nose - A sweet harmony of vanilla and heather honey fresh from the comb. A touch of water reveals a luxurious undertone of caramelised orange.
Palate - A cacophony of spice; cloves, nutmeg and star anise, tempered by a mellow hint of burnt toffee.
Finish - Like a leisurely decrescendo of peat smoke and dried fruit.
