About this bottle
This bottling was created to honor the 2018 Fèis Ìle (Islay Fest). It is a vatting of single malt from casks numbered 34, 65, 82, and 83. The whisky was distilled in March 2007 and initially placed in ex-bourbon barrels. After 11 years of aging, it is bottled at 55.5% ABV, straight from the cask. Only 744 bottles were made available for sale at the distillery on May 31, 2018, during Kilchoman Open Day at the festival.
