As described by the distillery team, this whisky is a one off that’s had “a somewhat complicated nine year maturation, a vatting of bourbon and sherry matured Kilchoman combined with port cask matured in 2014, the whisky was then filled back in bourbon barrels for a further six years ahead a six month finish in ruby port casks.” “Making great whisky is often about being patient,” said Anthony Wills, Kilchoman Founder and Managing Director. “In 2014 the whisky was all over the place but given time to mellow and develop it has become a wonderfully balanced and unique Kilchoman single malt.”

The new Kilchoman Am Bùrach, according to those behind it, is a Scotch single malt whisky that came about as a result of an accident back in 2014. At that time an “unnamed stillman, whilst vatting casks, accidentally mixed Machir Bay (a core expression from Kilchoman) and Port Matured Kilchoman causing Islay Heads, General Manager, to describe the resulting whisky as ‘Am Bùrach,'” which means “the mess” in Gaelic.
