Kilkerran 12 Year Old (2023 Release) 70cl

90.5 Points Jim Murray's Whiskey Bible 2021.
The Kilkerran 12 year old is lightly peated and non-chill filtered, and has been matured in a combination of 70% bourbon casks and 30% Sherry casks.

The distillery was reopened in 2004 after being closed for almost 80 years. This lightly peated 12-year-old was the first core release from Kilkerran, aged in a combination of 70% bourbon casks and 30% sherry casks. You can expect aromas of cherry, meringue and a dash of peat on the nose, complemented by thicky palate and notes of butterscotch, shortbread biscuit and honeycomb.

Tasting Notes

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.
