The 2nd Kilchoman Club Bottling was released on November 4, 2013. Eight 1st fill ex Bourbon barrels filled in October 2008 were selected by Anthony Wills and John McLellan and finished in Oloroso Sherry Butts. Bottled in cask strength, these barrels would make about 2000 bottles. The selling price is £ 75.00. Curiosity on the side: At the end of 2013 there will still be a few bottles available in the distillery shop (!!).

At the end of November 2013, Kilchoman released a similar bottling for the UK market with the Small Batch Release – Sherry Finish, which was also sold at the Kilchoman Visitor Centre for £75.00 in 2014. Both bottlings were created from a series of 1st fill ex-bourbon barrels that were filled in October 2008, finished in Oloroso sherry butts and bottled in November 2013. They even have the same alcohol content and are indistinguishable in flavour.
