For the Kilchoman Tasting Tour in Germany in September 2010, an exclusive Kilchoman release – a nearly 4-year-old 1st Fill Oloroso Sherry Butt – was bottled. This was only the second Kilchoman single cask release for Germany.

The Oloroso Sherry Butt 332/2006 was a so-called “split cask”. I.e. only part of the contents was used for this bottling, the other part was bottled on the same day for the French whisky fair Whisky Live 2010 in Paris.
Especially in the early Kilchoman days, where the individual markets did not yet require such high bottle numbers, it was a common practice to split the contents of the large 500 litre sherry butts between two or three bottlings.
