Discover the unique and refined Kilkerran Campbeltown Sherry Cask Matured 57.4%, an exclusive creation of Mitchell's Glengyle Ltd. which builds on Campbeltown's rich distilling tradition. The name "Kilkerran" is derived from the Gaelic 'Ceann Loch Cille Chiarain', which is the name of the original settlement where Saint Kieran had his religious cell and where Campbeltown now stands.
Kilkerran Campbeltown Sherry Cask Matured 57.4% is 8 years, 100% matured in Oloroso sherry casks, this whiskey embodies the craftsmanship and dedication they cherish. As a sister distillery to Springbank, Kilkerran has been a beacon of quality since its reopening in 2004 by J & A Mitchell. With only 3-4 months of distillation time per year, every drop of this lightly peated single malt is precious.
Tasting notes:
- On the nose: an explosion of aromatic citrus notes, accompanied by hints of orange peel, marmalade and a developing spiciness that becomes subtly peppery.
- On the palate: notes of barbecued meat dishes that nod to the influence of peat smoke. A sweetness permeates the palate with hints of sticky honey glaze and demerara sugar.
- Finish: subtly infused with a hint of peat smoke, accompanied by notes of soot and smoldering embers, perfectly rounding off the complexity of this whisky.
