Kilchoman Sanaig Cask Strength Single Malt Islay Scotch Whisky

Sanaig, Unleashed

Kilchoman Sanaig is named for a rocky cove on the northwest coast of Islay — a place of dramatic beauty and fierce Atlantic weather that perfectly captures the character of this richly sherried expression. Where the standard Sanaig is a beautifully balanced marriage of Oloroso sherry casks and Kilchoman's signature peated spirit, the Cask Strength edition removes the dilution and delivers that same character at full intensity. Bottled without chill filtration or added water, this is Sanaig as nature and the cask intended — bold, rich, and deeply satisfying.

Tasting Notes

• Nose: Rich and intense — Oloroso sherry, dark fruit, and a bold peat smoke with notes of dark chocolate, espresso, and coastal brine
• Palate: Full-bodied and powerful at cask strength — raisins, dark chocolate, and a deep sherry richness enveloped in earthy Islay peat smoke that builds with each sip
• Finish: Long and smoky with lingering dark fruit, chocolate, sea salt, and a deep, warming sherry oak fade
