Total Wine & More calls itself “America’s Wine Superstore”. Founded in 1991, the company is the largest independent supermarket chain for wine, spirits and beer with 46 superstores in 27 US states.
In 2022, for the second time, the company released its own Kilchoman Small Batch Release with an edition of 1.275 bottles.

The basis of the whiskies in the series of Small Batch Releases for selected markets, which began in 2019, is an already finished Machir Bay vatting or Machir Bay Collaborative Vatting , i.e. a whisky with 46% alcohol strength, which was previously matured for 3-5 years predominantly in bourbon barrels and 5-15% in oloroso sherry casks. This vatting is then married with an additional special cask.

For the “Small Batch No. 2 for Total Wine Concierge”, a Sauternes cask was added to the Machir Bay vatting. The proportions are given as 70% Bourbon, 5% Oloroso Sherry and 25% Sauternes.
