Kilchoman Quintuple Review (100% Islay – 3rd Edition, Loch Gorm, Port Wood, Bourbon Cask, Batch 1 (That Boutique-y Whisky Company))

I considered doing a series, however it’s that really busy time of year, so it’s probably better off if I just ham-fist all of these together. Yay Pig Hands! Anyway, Kilchoman is the baby of Islay, beginning production in June 2005. It’s also the first distillery to be built on the island, 124 years ago.

Special thanks to /u/usquebaugh_ for giving me the chance to try this dram. So. Eades Double Malt Islay – 1st Edition is quite the odd duck.
