Warehouse tasting Heavily peated 11y

About

Kilkerran's Heavily Peated is a robust single malt from Campbeltown that balances peat intensity with refinement. This 11-year-old expression, bottled at a cask-strength 58.1% ABV, showcases the distillery's characteristic citrus notes alongside a pronounced smoky character. The whisky's oily mouthfeel and full body create an impressive, youthful yet mature dram that rewards patient exploration. The nose reveals citrus—particularly lemon and lime—alongside hints of vanilla and toasted rye bread, supported by delicate peat smoke. On the palate, peat takes centre stage, with pepper and spice driven by the elevated alcohol strength. The finish is long and dry, with lingering smoke and oak tones that underscore this whisky's youthful vigour. A compelling choice for peat enthusiasts seeking intensity without compromise.
