“Absolutely spectacular! Visited a local outlet in Salt Lake and picked up Kilchoman Sanaig. At ₹8,500 in Kolkata, this represents incredible value. The notes of Rich dried fruit and dark chocolate and Smoky peat with a hint of sea salt pair phenomenally well with home-cooked Mutton Kosha. Highly recommended!”

“A highly sophisticated Single Malt Scotch Whisky by Kilchoman. Wonderfully smooth on the throat with subtle hints of Rich dried fruit and dark chocolate and Sweet sherry and vanilla. Serving this neat during a family gathering in Park Street was a major hit, especially alongside local Chicken Kabiraji!”

“I'm thoroughly impressed by Kilchoman's execution here. The palate is extremely rich with a refined finish highlighting Smoky peat with a hint of sea salt. At the Kolkata price of ₹8,500, it's easily one of the best choices in its segment paired with Baked Sandesh.”
