Thanks to the great folks over at Arrowine.com, I attended a wonderful weekend whiskey tasting hosted by the Kilchoman distillery - the most recent on Islay (2005). I greatly enjoyed their Machir Bay and 100% Islay bottlings, and as soon as I heard the word "Kilchoman," I eagerly signed up.
The tasting was a fantastic expereince - I sat in a small room at RIS without about a dozen other Scotch drinkers, and sampled 7 drams of excellent whiskey. At the end of the day I was given a Glencairn glass with the Kilchoman logo, and a great T-shirt with the Kilchoman 2016 East Coast Tour information on it. Kilchoman has made themselves a fan (not from swag, but from excellent whisky).
