Kilchoman Machir Bay Single Malt Scotch Whisky is one of the signature expressions from Kilchoman, Islay’s farm distillery known for its traditional craftsmanship, in-house barley growing, and truly authentic smoky character. Named after the stunning Machir Bay beach, this whisky captures the essence of Islay — maritime winds, ocean mist, peat smoke, and natural sweetness.
Distilled using heavily peated malt and matured in a combination of Bourbon barrels (predominantly) and a touch of Sherry casks, Machir Bay delivers complexity, balance, and coastal freshness in every sip.
On the nose, it’s bright and expressive: bonfire smoke, vanilla, citrus zest, sea breeze, and toasted oak, with hints of pear, malty sweetness, and gentle spice.
The palate is bold yet elegant — peat smoke, salted caramel, lemon peel, roasted barley, honey, and subtle tropical fruit, all wrapped in a silky, slightly oily texture.
The finish is long, smoky, and maritime, with lingering notes of ash, brine, pepper, and sweet malt.
Bottled at 46% ABV, non-chill filtered and natural color, Machir Bay is an outstanding example of modern Islay craftsmanship — youthful, vibrant, smoky, and full of character.
Perfect neat or with a few drops of water, and excellent alongside smoked fish, grilled meats, aged cheese, or dark chocolate.
