Portrait: What makes the Kilchoman Vintage 2008 Oloroso Sherry Cask #639/2008 The Sister Casks special

The Single Cask Kilchoman Vintage 2008 Oloroso Sherry Cask #639/2008 matured for over 15 years in a former Oloroso sherry cask and was bottled for the 50th anniversary of the Hanseatische Weinhandelsgesellschaft. Three sets of sister Casks are being released for this anniversary series, the sister Cask of this bottling is Cask #633/2008. 

For the 50th anniversary of the Hanseatische Weinhandelsgesellschaft (German importer and partner of Kilchoman), on the last trip to Islay, six exceptional and previously never released Kilchoman casks were selected (The Sister Casks) and released as “one-of-a-kind” editions to mark the anniversary.  
It is a rare selection of single casks from the distillery's early years, of which Kilchoman only has a handful of casks left, including the first Oloroso sherry single cask maturations as well as a 100% Islay malt with age statement, distilled from the farm distillery's own barley.
These single casks were personally made by Peter Wills and Stephan Ehmke in the distillery's Dunnage Warehouse selectedand released as “The Sister Casks,” meaning that these casks were distilled and casked on the same day. After filling the exquisite Casks, the individual maturation period of “The Sister Casks” began. The respective sister Casks were also filled on the same day. An exciting journey of discovery into how aromas develop individually in each Cask.

Tasting Notes: This is what the Kilchoman Vintage 2008 Oloroso Sherry Cask #633/2008 The Sister Casks tastes like

  • Nose: strong aromas of red fruits, combined with caramel and dark chocolate - strong peat smoke above all
  • Palate: mouth-filling - again the ripe red fruits, the sherry is clearly visible - then smoky notes of peat fire follow, behind that again the chocolate
  • Finish: long in the peaty-fruity finish - the pleasant fruity sherry sweetness carries the finish
