Single Malt
Scotland
Sherry
Powerfully flavoursome single malt from Kilkerran, matured for 8 years and then bottled at cask strength! This particular bottling, released in late 2019, was aged in re-charred Oloroso sherry casks, so expect plenty of those yummy dried fruit, chocolate and festive spices notes alongside the peaty smoke.
Pow! Cinnamon, smoked ham and sultana, with a touch of apricot and coffee bean mixed up in there too.
Spicier on the palate, with cinnamon joined by black pepper and stem ginger. Dried fruit notes take their time, but eventually dominate the palate alongside a hint of honey.
Subtle coffee bitterness and lingering peat.
Don't buy this whisky. You won't want to know that it's a complex maple-y bacon flavoured sweet delight. You won't want to know how it tastes given it's dark alluring colour after only being matured for 8 years. You won't want to explore something a little more exciting. You won't want to find out that this amazing combination of wood and subtle smoke is something you can get behind you sherrry-bomb-lover-you! If you don't buy this whisky it means there's more for me... so.... don't buy this whisky.
