Kilchoman Maury Cask Matured Islay Scotch Whisky

Islay Single Malt Scotch Whisky | 50% ABV | 100 Proof | 700mL | Fully Matured in Ex-Maury Fortified Wine Casks | Limited Edition

Process & Profile

Kilchoman Maury Cask Matured Islay Scotch Whisky is a limited Islay single malt fully matured in ex-Maury fortified wine casks. This is not simply a cask finish; the whisky spends its full maturation in Maury wine casks, giving it deep color, rich fruit sweetness, and a bold wine-cask influence.

Maury is a sweet fortified wine from the Roussillon region of southern France, made primarily from Grenache Noir grapes. That cask style adds layers of dates, raisins, dark honey, red fruit, chocolate, and warming spice while balancing Kilchoman’s signature peat smoke, citrus freshness, and coastal Islay character.

Bottled at 50% ABV, Kilchoman Maury Cask Matured Islay Scotch Whisky is a strong choice for fans of peated Scotch, wine cask matured whisky, limited Kilchoman releases, and bold Islay single malts with both smoke and dark fruit richness.
