“The 2023 PX Sherry Cask Matured release is our first limited edition to be fully matured in PX casks. Some might consider five years to be a short maturation, but theses PX hogsheads give such a rich and sweet character, shorter maturation is the only option to maintain a good balance of flavor. Here, the sweetness and peat smoke of our spirit balance perfectly with the PX character to create a rich, multi-dimensional whisky with hints of light citrus and waves of maritime peat.” — Anthony Willis, Kilchoman Founder

"An exquisite combination of sherry fruit and peat smoke, with aromas of sultana, allspice, aniseed, nutmeg, cigar wrapper, Brazil nut, and licorice. The indulgent notes continue uninterrupted on the palate, with muscovado sugar, chocolate brownie, malt, and zested orange, winding down with rich dark chocolate and dried vine fruits into a soothing finish of raisin, peat smoke, and chocolate. (1,980 bottles for the U.S.)"
