For the French whisky fair Whisky Live, which took place in Paris from 25 to 27 September 2010, an exclusive Kilchoman single cask – a nearly 4-year-old 1st Fill Oloroso Sherry Butt – was also bottled. This was only the third Kilchoman single cask release for France.

The Oloroso Sherry Butt 332/2006 was a so-called “split cask”. I.e. the present bottling was only filled with a part of the contents, the other part was bottled on the same day for The German Tasting Tour 2010. Especially in the early Kilchoman days, where the individual markets did not yet require such high bottle numbers, it was a frequent procedure to divide the contents of the large 500 litre sherry butts between two or three bottlings.
