KILCHOMAN MACHIR BAY
Machir Bay is a core expression from Kilchoman, showcasing a vatting of ex-bourbon and sherry casks to achieve a balance between the distillery's peat smoke and the sweetness imparted by the wood. It's named after one of Islay's most beautiful beaches and reflects the natural beauty and purity of the island. This whisky is celebrated for its approachability, offering a perfect introduction to Kilchoman's craftsmanship.
