Loch Gorm is the name given to our annual sherry matured limited edition. Named after Islay’s largest freshwater loch neighbouring the distillery, the dark murky colour of the loch’s water is reflected in the rich coppery tones of our sherry matured Loch Gorm release.
‘Loch Gorm, in my opinion, is reaching it’s perfect age, balancing those rich sherry notes with our classic Islay spirit. 10 years maturation in sherry casks has added an abundance of rich spices, dark fruit and barbecue sweetness to the light citrus and peaty character of Kilchoman.’ Anthony Wills, Kilchoman Founder

Tasting notes:
Nose: Caramelised custard tart, freshly roasted coffee with notes of candied ginger.
Palate: Honey roasted figs, cloves and sticky toffee pudding with a suggestive smokiness evocative of barbequed bananas.
