Kilchoman Comraich Batch No. 6 2022

53.8% ABV - 750mL

A note from our friends at Kilchoman Distillery:
"Comraich" means sanctuary in Gaelic. Kilchoman Comraichean are a collection of sanctuaries, sheltered from the commotion of the outside world, dedicated to the enjoyment of Kilchoman Single Malt.
Kilchoman Comraich establishments serve as bastions of Kilchoman with exclusive access to Kilchoman Comraich bottlings.

We are honored to be counted among their Comraichean. Since we opened Prizefighter Bar in 2011, we have carried every single bottling from them that we were able to get our hands on. We have a deep love for their whiskies and independent spirit. This is a bottle that you are unlikely to find for sale anywhere else. It's a 10+ year old vatting of 4 ex-bourbon casks that were finished in 2 fresh 400 liter ex-Calvados casks for 1 year. Apples and fresh fruit are laced into Kilchomans signature briny, citrusy smokey profile. A stunning whisky.

About Kilchoman
Kilchoman Distillery was founded by Englishman Anthony Wills in 2005 at the Rockside Farm on the renowned whisky-making island of Islay, Scotland. "Islay's Farm Distillery" produces the only single farm, single malt whisky on the island. They take on the arduous task of floor malting much of their own barley and use peat from bogs near the farm for drying the barley. Their custom designed stills are unusually small which produces a much higher copper contact with the spirit. Their first releases were younger, non-age stated whiskies which was unusual for the time but is now quite common with other producers. Their spirits are characterized by a citrus note and very well integrated peat smoke. At our bar next door, we have carried every single release that was made available to us since the day that we opened in 2011. We were honored to be named a "Comraich" by the distillery. It means :"sanctuary" in Gaelic and the title is bestowed upon establishments that are bastions of Kilchoman whisky enjoyment. They are one of our favorite distilleries on earth and we carry more individual products made there than from any other single producer.
