Lightly peated and bottled at our standard bottling strength of 46% ABV, our Kilkerran 12 year old provides a fitting introduction to the Kilkerran range, with characteristic citrus notes and an oiliness on the palate. Matured in 70% Bourbon and 30% Sherry casks.
Nose
Notes of sweet confectionery introduce this dram, with turkish delight, pear drops and marzipan apparent on the nose. There are hints of subtle peat smoke, like toasted marshmallows by a campfire.
Palate
Initially zesty with citrus notes of lemon cheesecake and an oiliness typical of a Campbeltown whisky. Peat smoke, leather bound books and peppery, spicy notes develop over time, along with sweet sticky toffee pudding.
Finish
The peat smoke carries through to the finish in campfire embers, with sweet hints of pecan pie and butterscotch.
