In September 2020, the well-known French spirits retailer and Kilchoman importer “La Maison du Whisky” launched an exclusive series of 5 Kilchoman single cask bottlings called “The Wills Family Cask Collection”. The concept of the series was that each of the five members of the Kilchoman owning family would select a special cask.
Peter Wills, the youngest son of Kathy and Anthony Wills, chose the Ruby Port Cask 483/2014, in which the whisky was matured for over 6 years.
Fine Stvari, the Croatian Kilchoman importer, had a partial edition of 21 bottles of this release bottled and labelled separately. This first Kilchoman Single Cask bottling for Croatia was obviously used primarily for marketing purposes, but was then also sold in Fine Stvari‘s online shop for €120.00.

The label does not show a cask number, instead the malt specification is given at the corresponding place with ‘Port Ellen Malt’.
