The basis of the whiskies in the series of Small Batch Releases for Selected Markets launched in 2019, with which Kilchoman presents its experimental side, is an already finished Machir Bay vatting or Machir Bay Collaborative Vatting , i.e. a whisky with 46% alcohol strength, which was previously matured for approx. 5 years predominantly in bourbon barrels and 5-15% in oloroso sherry casks. This vatting is then married with an additional special cask.

In the case of the “Japan Small Batch No. 2” released in 2022, the additional cask is a Calvados Hogshead. The proportions are given as 70% bourbon, 5% oloroso sherry and 25% calvados.
