Kilchoman is set to drop their annual release of Loch Gorm, limited edition sherry cask-matured whisky.
Named after a famously dark and peaty loch (Scottish for “lake”) neary the distillery because of its warm copper tone, Loch Gorm is only release in the Kilchoman range to be fully matured in sherry casks and only 15,000 bottles will be released.
Each new edition containing a different combination of casks. This, the 2019 edition, is no different. Twenty oloroso sherry butts from 2006, 2007, 2008, 2009 and 2011 have been selected for this release, meaning that for the first time Loch Gorm will contain 12 and 13-year-old casks from the Kilchoman warehouses.
“It has been fascinating to see first-hand how the character of our oloroso butts have developed over the years,” says Anthony Wills, Kilchoman Founder and Managing Director. “Recent editions of Loch Gorm have seen a coming-of-age for the range, the addition 12 and 13-year-old casks add a fantastic balance and complexity.”
Kilchoman Loch Gorm 2019 will be available worldwide next Friday (March 28th).
