Kilchoman Sanaig Single Malt  – Rich & Peated Sherry Cask Islay Whisky

Where peat meets sherry – and the result is pure Islay magic.

The Kilchoman Sanaig  single malt is a powerhouse of flavour from Islay’s trailblazing farm distillery. Named after a rugged inlet north of the distillery, Sanaig is heavily influenced by Oloroso sherry casks, bringing richness, sweetness, and depth to Kilchoman’s signature peated style.

Crafted with a mix of bourbon and Oloroso sherry cask-matured spirit, this non-age statement single malt offers a stunning harmony of coastal smoke, dark fruit, and malty spice. It’s Islay through and through, but with a lush, dessert-like twist.

Bottled at 46% ABV, with natural colour and no chill-filtration, Sanaig is as real as it gets — a raw, honest dram that punches above its weight in complexity and character.

Tasting Notes:

• Nose: Smouldering peat, sultanas, black cherries, cocoa powder, sea breeze

• Palate: Sweet sherry richness upfront – raisins, dark chocolate, and orange peel – wrapped in coastal smoke and peppered spice

• Finish: Long, warming, and oily with lingering smoke, stewed fruit, and oak
