The 5th edition of the “Club Release” reserved for Kilchoman Club members was available on November 14, 2016 for £109.50 from the distillery’s webshop. The special feature of the 5th edition is not a special cask maturation but its age: Anthony Wills chose two of the few remaining casks from 2006 – a 1st fill bourbon barrel and a sherry butt – and married them together. Bottled in cask strength (57.0% alcohol), the edition was 900 bottles. After some private cask releases and a single cask for Belgium, Kilchoman now presented its first own 10 years old bottling.
