Kilchoman Distillery on Islay stands as a modern tribute to traditional craftsmanship. Founded in 2005 as a true “farm distillery,” Kilchoman is one of the few distilleries in Scotland that manages the entire whisky-making process — from growing barley to malting, distilling, maturing, and bottling — all on its own land. This dedication gives Kilchoman whiskies a distinctive authenticity and a clear sense of place.
Kilchoman Cognac Cask Matured is a unique expression that beautifully combines Islay’s peat smoke with French refinement. Fully matured in premium cognac casks from the Charente region of France, it delivers warmth, fruitiness, and complexity that complement Kilchoman’s smoky spirit.
The nose offers rich aromas of dried fruits, apricot, vanilla, and gentle smoke. On the palate, it’s round and full-bodied, revealing notes of ripe pear, honey, spiced oak, and a hint of orange zest. The finish is long and velvety, where soft peat smoke lingers with the elegant, wine-like sweetness of the cognac casks.
This release highlights Kilchoman’s experimental and elegant side — a whisky where Islay’s maritime power meets French sophistication. Ideal for the adventurous whisky lover seeking depth, balance, and a fresh interpretation of smoky single malt.
