So not having been yet, but having tried multiple expressions from all of the Islay distilleries that have released products so — or rather, the current eight — I’ve developed something of an imaginary landscape of the place in my mind. I’m following here in Tyree’s footsteps of his recent Tour of Islay, in which he included a stop at our distillery of the day. Machir Bay is also a combination of both bourbon and sherry casks but it has a vatting of a high proportion of bourbon barrels which creates a distinct balance of classic Islay character and fresh floral complexity.

Tasting Notes

Honey, peat, pears, cinnamon, apple, minerality, vanilla, spice and a crisp saline edge. It’s heavy, deep and complex with layers that get uncovered with time. Erhebung: Das sind die 10 beliebtesten Whisky-Brennereien in Schottland, England, Wales und Irland • CaptainScotch.de". CaptainScotch.de (in German). 28 July 2023 . Retrieved 28 July 2023. Standing on the beach at Machir Bay today, gazing at a sea which seems to boil and churn, even when calm, one can only imagine the devastating events that once took place. Then, with a sharp intake of salty air and a blast of the Atlantic wind, you perfectly grasp the reasoning behind the naming of Kilchoman’s flagship single malt. The Whisky Holy cow… I mean… just… wow this Kilchoman Machir Bay 2017 reminds me of older Ardbeg. Like the 2016 this is crisp, peaty, fruity, dark and sweet and carries the amazing essence of the early 2000s Ardbeg. It’s just astounding and it’s all I can think about when I’m drinking the ’16 and ’17 releases. From a malt point it makes sense, but from a cask and aging stance it’s completely remarkable.

Moving away from the comparison and into the actual whisky it bears repeating that it carries an elegant profile across the senses and has a lot of sweet notes that get paired with the earthier malt, peat and saline notes. There’s so much going on and it’s so alluring – I don’t want to stop drinking it. Give this whisky more age and depth and it’s going to an absolute stunner. Can you imagine a 10-year-old Machir Bay? 15? 20? I’m looking forward to the day, but for now I’m all about this Kilchoman Machir Bay 2017. No matter “where” I travel with whatever Islay dram I have in my glass, I’m almost always glad I made the trip. The Islay of my imagination is thus populated by territories of flavour and experience, sea winds of distillate aromas, peaty lochs and rivers of similarities and contrasts, and sensory wonders of taste and discovery.

Kilchoman Machir Bay 2017 isn’t just good for Kilchoman it’s good for an Islay Scotch and a whisky period. There are so many peated Scotches out there that cost more, have been aged longer, etc., I’d pass up in a heartbeat for a glass of this. More about why in the Kilchoman Machir Bay 2017 review below. Kilchoman Machir Bay 2017 Info

The distillery first filled casks on 14 December 2005 and the distillery began bottling 3-year-old single malt in September 2009. [6] The first Kilchoman, the "Inaugural release" was released in 2009 and the first 100% Islay whisky released in 2011. A charity on Islay - Islay Development Initiative - has a range of candles made with Islay beeswax from their apiary of native dark European bees, named after beaches on the island using scents of plants found on each beach. Machir Bay scent is spearmint and chamomile. The Charity uses funds raised to support Islay BeachWatch, which keeps the beaches clear of marine litter. Exploring Islay's farm-based Kilchoman Distillery". scotsman.com. 8 January 2014 . Retrieved 21 January 2023.I’m a fan of the Machir Bay series and this Kilchoman Machir Bay 2017 is no exception – that’s no secret. It’s the penultimate representation of Kilchoman’s style and yet it’s insanely affordable. One sip of this and it’s easy to see why Kilchoman is gaining steam all over the country. The south coast is, of course, dominated by the big three of Ardbeg (lime and meat drippings), Lagavulin (vegetal smoky peat), and Laphroaig (iodine smoke) — not only geographically but, for me at least, in the broad similarities in their flavour profiles (at least compared to the isle’s other distilleries). Bunnahabhain with its salty dried fruit nuttiness sits apart from the south coast three as its house style is unpeated (although they do produce some lovely peated expressions, particularly bottled by IBs), as does Bruichladdich with its barley-rich, farmyard-flavoured core offerings. But Bunna’s and Bruichladdich’s peated expressions too are quite distinct from the south coast three. (Caol Ila’s briny smokiness, of course, has its magical alchemy, being great no matter what kind of cask it sleeps away in.)
