Kilchoman Sauternes Single Malt 2024 + Gin Sul for free
It's almost time... the beloved classic is back!
The limited edition Kilchoman Sauternes Single Malt 2024 spent its entire maturation period in Sauternes wine barrels.
Anthony Wills, founder of Kilchoman, selected a combination of fresh and refill Sauternes barriques from two different vintages, the youngest from 2018, creating an extraordinary balance of buttery sweetness, grilled pineapple, ginger candy and floral peat smoke. After a six-year absence, Sauternes Cask Matured Kilchoman is back!
The previous release was a Sauternes expression, now it's time to return to the full power that comes with full maturation in these wine casks. Waves of sweet fruit and butter balanced by the peaty smoke of Islay, that's this delicious whisky.
This time, Anthony has opted for 22 % fresh and 78 % filled casks from two years of distillation. This roughly 3:1 ratio of fresh and refill casks creates the perfect balance of Sauternes influence and Kilchoman character.
The majority of the selected refill casks were previously used for the 2018 release of the Sauternes finish. Using these casks for finishing is the ideal preparation for full maturation.
Aging in Sauternes barrels is challenging, especially full-bodied aging, which is why it is so rare.
The bottles are bottled at 50 % alcohol with a volume of 0,7 l and are supplied in gift cartons.
A breeze is coming from Portugal! Take your mind to the wild coast of Vincentina and enjoy a refreshing Gin Tonic in the hot sun. Botanicals originating from Portugal and distilled in a famous German distillery in Hamburg. That's Gin Sul.
Juniper distillate is produced in a small, hand-made, copper still. All alcoholic vapors in it must pass through a metal sieve in which there are herbs.
Cold, clear and soft water from the Lüneburg Heath, grapefruit-sized Portuguese lemons, juniper, fresh rosemary, and the oily resin of the cistus herb (rock rose) make GIN SUL extraordinary. The touch of the Portuguese Atlantic coast is bottled in typical white clay bottles, which protect the gin from light and heat.
