Description
Sanaig, named after an inlet on Islay’s rugged Atlantic coast, is a vatting of Kilchoman whiskies matured in both sherry (70%) and bourbon barrels (30%). The high proportion of oloroso sherry casks creates a unique balance of dried fruits, dark chocolate and rich peat smoke. A peated whisky at 50 ppm.
Tasting notes of the distillery:
On the nose fragrant heather, raisins, pear and orange peel with waves of stoned fruits, mixed spices and rich peat smoke.
On the palate over ripe plums, red cherries and hints of citrus give way to rich barbeque peat smoke, toffee, oak and dark chocolate.
The finishhasmouth-coating mixed fruit, caramel, cinnamon and clove with layers of brown sugar, spices, peat smoke and lasting sweetness.
