Shortly after one of the first Oloroso Sherry single cask bottlings, the Californian wine and spirits shop K&L Wines released the very first 100% Islay release for the USA. In the 100% Islay production line, which is somewhat weaker peated at approx. 20 ppm, it is known that all production steps from barley to bottle – from the cultivation and harvesting of the barley to the bottling – are carried out exclusively by Kilchoman itself and establish its self-image as a farm distillery.

The whisky was first matured in a Buffalo Trace bourbon barrel and then finished in an Oloroso sherry cask.
