This delightful Campbeltown malt speaks for itself, it truly is an exceptional dram that also offer tremendous value. Kilkerran 12 year old is lightly peated, double distilled and has been crafted from single malt matured in a combination of bourbon and sherry casks. We received two bottling dates within our latest delivery, even though it's a bit more work for us we do like a bit of geekery, so we thought we'd split these up for those who like to try different bottling dates/batches. This latest Kilkerran 12 year old was bottled December 2024.
Tasting Notes
Awards
Nose
Oak notes are dominant, followed by toasted marshmallows and dried fruit pudding, as well as cherries, marzipan and a hint of peat.
Palate
Initially fruity with citrus notes and orange peel, after this: vanilla, butterscotch, honeycomb and digestive biscuits can all be tasted and enjoyed.
Finish
Velvet and smooth with lemon meringue, to conclude, there’s an oiliness and a saltiness that you’d expect from a Campbeltown dram.
