Title:
Kilkerran 16 Years Old 46% September 2021 (2025)
Description:
Having only been distilling since 2004, the first release of Kilkerran 16 year old comprises some of the oldest stocks available at Glengyle. Therefore it is released only occasionally and in very limited quantities. Matured in ex-bourbon (98%) and Madeira (2%) casks.
Tasting Notes
Nose - Initially delicate with herbal and citrus characteristics before opening up to reveal brighter and zestier notes with orange peel and tart lemon meringue pie. There is also a creamy, nutty aroma which develops over time and a hint of tropical pineapple. A fleeting briny component reminds you that this is definitely a Campbeltown Single Malt.
Palate - The palate reveals layers of complex flavours. Cereal and malt notes are present alongside soft dry peat smoke, herbs, black pepper and tones of sandalwood and beeswax. The bourbon maturation allows a fragrant aniseed note to carry through from the spirit, which also lends a waxy texture to the dram.
Finish - The dry and ashy peat smoke influence continues as does the deep-rooted coastal brine. Overall this is a bright and complex whisky that is not overly sweetened from the bourbon maturation. It is fragrant, grassy and gently peated.
