From February to April, Chin Chin Bar, one of Hong Kong’s Best Whisky Bars as selected by the 2018 RBHK Best Spirits Awards, is proud to present two bespoke cocktails as well as a flight featuring whiskies from Kilchoman, the only Scottish distillery with single malt produced entirely in Islay from barley to bottle.
The first cocktail, Hazy, is composed with the rich and sweet Kilchoman Machir Bay. The tropical fruit and honey notes harmonise with the sweet and tangy Korean yuzu tea added to the cocktail. Another irresistibly unique homemade cocktail, Pioneer, is made from Kilchoman Sanaig. Inspired by the red cherry and over-ripe plum flavours in the liquor, both Western and Chinese plums are mixed together to make the cocktail one of a kind.
True whisky aficionados may savour the Kilchoman Whisky Flight which consists of three whiskies, starting with Loch Gorm 2018 Edition which features heavy sherry notes and mouth-filling peat smoke; Port Cask Matured 2018 Edition that offers flavours of redcurrant jam and cinnamon with layers of citrus on the palate; and 100% Islay 8th Edition, known for being well-balanced with a long clean finish.
