A true Campbeltown classic, Kilkerran 12-Year-Old is a lightly peated single malt that perfectly introduces the Kilkerran range. Bottled at 46% ABV and non-chill filtered, this whisky showcases the unique characteristics of the Glengyle Distillery, renowned for its traditional whisky-making techniques.
Matured in a 70% Bourbon and 30% Sherry cask combination, this dram delivers a zesty, citrus-forward profile with a distinct oiliness—a hallmark of Campbeltown whisky.
The nose opens with sweet confectionery, Turkish delight, pear drops, and marzipan, followed by subtle peat smoke reminiscent of toasted marshmallows by a campfire. On the palate, expect lemon cheesecake, soft spices, and leather-bound books, balanced by sticky toffee pudding and peppery warmth. The finish is long and satisfying, where peat smoke lingers in campfire embers, mingled with sweet pecan pie and rich butterscotch.
This exceptional 12-year-old whisky is a must-have for those who appreciate balanced peat, complexity, and depth in their drams.
