Ericc22

Kilkerran 12 Year

Single Malt — Campbeltown, Scotland

Reviewed March 9, 2021 (edited May 15, 2021)
5.0
5.0 out of 5 stars
Straw+Gold in color. Nose punches well above its weight class. Lots going on, touch of peat and some salt, with plenty of honey. After open for a while, more appears including some raw meat and fresh vanilla. Let this one stay open for an hour plus, and it continues to evolve. The orange turns to cherry and apple. On palette, again - great value going on here. Some estery orange, with Cambletown sea spray, toffee. And enough smoke. Orange, almonds, and butterscotch. Touch of black pepper for sure. That smoke and salt comes on just perfect. Gets sweeter as it opens. Just a ton going on and really good value. Really rich. $ for $, one of the best. Could drink it all day. Hard to find a better value at this price.

    No argument here - great stuff, particularly at the price. Real old-school whisky. Try Ben Nevis 10 year old next - it's half way between this and old-style Mortlach.

    I fully agree. This is basically the new Talisker 10 from the south.
