About this bottle
A single malt Scotch whisky from Scotland from Kilchoman, Kilchoman 8 Year Ruby Port Cask Finish Single Malt Whiskey is part of the Spirit Hives whiskey selection. It is bottled at 56% ABV, carrying a 8-year age statement, in a 750 ml bottle. Producer tasting notes — on the nose: Cherries, earthy peat, plums, cranberry, caramel, grapefruit, bell peppers, raisins. Water brings citrusy notes; on the palate: Orchard fruits, caramel, vanilla, elegant, white peppers, milk chocolate. Thick texture with a jammy feel. As it opens up peat smoke takes the spotlight, feeling like smoking a pipe, leaving salty notes around the edges of the tongue; finish: Long, lingering with mint chip chocolate. A touch of maritime (coastal) impact. Oak spices, malt notes with cereals. A touch of Tuscany wine!.

Serving & pairing
Serve neat with a few drops of water to open the aromas. Lighter styles suit smoked salmon and shortbread; peated styles suit blue cheese and oysters.
Single malt or blended Scotch?
Single malt means one distillery, 100% malted barley, pot stills. Blended Scotch mixes malt whisky from several distilleries with lighter grain whisky, aiming for consistency and approachability. Blended malt (no grain whisky) sits between the two. Neither is inherently better; single malts show one distillery’s character while good blends show balance.
