At the end of 2014, this Kilchoman single cask bottling was released in Luxembourg. In 2014, finishing in Pedro Ximénez sherry casks was still a new Kilchoman theme. The first such bottlings had been released earlier in the year. This release was the world’s first and for a long time only PX finish of the 100% Islay distillate made from the farm’s own barley and slightly less peated.

The whisky was first matured for five years in a fresh ex-bourbon barrel and was then finished for about 4 months in a Pedro Ximénez sherry cask.
