    Difficult!
    I like Kilchoman and I like Port! And everyone who knows me knows, Port and smoke makes me wet. So I went again this time and ordered a bottle of my dummy - in the end actually get what I should have expected, but did not expect; Namely, better Bramble liqueur - a liqueur that consists of Bramble; but this whisky is in 'hardly anything' ... Can one drink this port Matured? Answer: YES! Are there better things for this price? Answer: YES! (and more harmonic stuff anyway). Like I said, the Bramble and the Kilcho Port mentioned above do not take away so much in the end. Especially the nose and finish are frighteningly similar; Considering that the Bramble is set with New Make ... So I can only warn you here. Those who award high marks here have not drunk good Port Matured Whiskys. Shit definitely tastes different - nevertheless, I find the invoked price (80 €) for this malt at least 100% to much ... Is it now up to you who you believe? Collectors buy everything anyway, without a plan ...

    Pretty outstanding dram, especially considering it's only 4 years old. The port finish is phenomenal. It complements the dram, it doesn't dominate it. As with all drams I tasted by them, Kilchoman does not fail to impress!
    • Nose
      First off, that typical Kilchoman farm-y earthiness and peat combined with fresh red fruit. A little alcohol on the nose, and some very interesting citrus notes. Some fresh tobacco and a faint hint of mint.
    • Taste
      Very bold red fruit and citrus notes with pepper, smoke and vanilla. With some added water the mouthfeel becomes very creamy and oily, which is definitely a plus. 
    • Finish
      Long and spicy. Definitely some mint in the finish, together with cooked red fruit, and again some vanilla tobacco. The taste that lingers is dark, sweet and smoky.

    Enjoybale wihisky, but it lacks a bit og balance to be a very good one. Much more smoke in the body than in the nose, whereas the nsoe is more fruitier than the body. It also has this skimpy influence of red wine.
    • Nose
      85 85
      Fruity, a bit sour, citrus. At first pretty light, later on more alcohol comes through. Clearly some red wine influence now, the peatsmoke is pretty much on the background.
    • Taste
      87 87
      At first some sal ammoniac, pretty strong, pet smoke. Then some sweetness, caramel, also some red fruits and chocolate
    • Finish
      86 86
      Still some pepper, sweet smoke, honey, drying, pretty long, later on some fruitiness, again a bit winey now.

    Peat and Port - always the best

  9. Whiskywobbler scored this whisky 86 points Expert Senior

    Lovely port notes in the nose, but these do not really come through in the palate except for the finish. The port and smoke do crash a bit. I would like to taste this after a few more years in the cask.

  10. Varrek scored this whisky 85 points Expert Junior

    Round, sweet smoke, vert delicate. Definitely would recommend as an entry point to peated whisky
    At the same time, in my opinion, wine little bit too much overtake the smoke
