Kilchoman prides itself on being Scotland's only distillery to present a single malt made from their own grown and malted barley.
The Uniquely Islay series gives Kilchoman the opportunity to experiment with and present unusual barrel types.
"So there are some really interesting cask types here which is something that we now specialize in a bit. We call them our Experimental Casks that we fill; all from different types of wine and spirits." explains Anthony Wills, Kilchoman
Founder and MD.
