Aged for 12 years, this Kilkerran single malt Scotch whisky is lightly peated, double distilled and created from 70% bourbon casks and 30% sherry casks. It's been 'Work In Progress' but after all the hard work, it's great to have this core bottling from Mitchell’s Glengyle Distillery as a permanent lineup - and what a beauty it is.
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.
