Kilkerran Cask Strength 2018 Release Bourbon Cask Matured Single Malt Scotch Whisky 8 Year Old
In stock
The third release of the Kilkerran 8 year old cask strength bottling. This one comes in at a healthy 56.5% abv.
Lightly peated, this has a real kick to it. Quite salty and coastal on the nose, with fresh green apple and vanilla passing through to fresh cut rhubarb. The palate is quite spicy and with a touch of sweetness, both vanilla and light icing sugar come to mind. The finish is long and persistent, quite dry with more coastal (salty) notes and lingering light peat fire.
