Expert Review
After six ‘Work in Progress’ releases, Kilkerran from Glengyle Distillery has finally come of age with this core expression. It comprises 70% whisky from first-fill bourbon casks and 30% from sherry casks. Floral on the nose, with honey and a hint of brine, then peaty fruit notes develop. The palate is confident and oily, slightly earthy, with tinned peaches, black pepper, cinnamon, smoke, and a suggestion of medicine chests. The finish is relatively long, with pepper, licorice, and drying oak.

Creamy butterscotch and caramel notes in the beginning, with the development of notes of rye bread and tea leaf.
A familiar oiliness and smokiness is introduced on the palate, with notes of Iberico ham and brandy snaps.
