SANAIG SCORES 95
June 8, 2018Sanaig has been awarded 95 points in this year’s Ultimate Spirits Challenge, a great result which puts Sanaig in the Extraordinary, Ultimate Recommendation category. The score follows Machir Bay’s 95 points in last year’s competition; a nice run of results for our two core expressions.

Take a look in the Whisky Shop or more details on these two flagships of the Kilchoman range.
