After the Chinese Kilchoman importer Single Malt Club China (SMCC) had already released five Kilchoman single cask bottlings in mid-2023, it filled its annual Kilchoman single cask quota with four more bottlings at the end of the year.

The four bottlings were two further Sauternes wine cask finishes, a further Ruby Port cask finish and an eight-year-old full maturation in a Pedro Ximénez sherry cask.

The Sauternes Cask Finish mentioned here is just under 11 years old, almost 2 years older than the Cask No. 1008/2014 released at the same time. The whisky was first matured for over 8 years in an ex-Buffalo Trace Bourbon barrel before being finished in a Sauternes wine cask for more than 2 years.
