The latest addition to the Kilkerran Peated range, this 11th batch single malt dram is a robustly smoky number sitting at around 45ppm. Matured in a selection of 90% bourbon and 10% sherry casks. 

Bottled at 57.9% abv, this Campbeltown liquid has a typically Kilkerran citrus aroma running alongside the smell of peat smoke. The palate features flavours of slightly burnt campfire marshmallows with a pleasantly vanilla-y smoked finish. 

The first 10-year-old single malt release from the Kingsbarns Distillery, this fabulous bottling is a true milestone piece that is worth a spot in any connoisseur’s collection. 

Distilled from barley local to the distillery, this fruity Lowland liquid was matured in 90% ex-Bourbon barrels and 10% STR red wine barriques, giving it added sweetness, spice, and depth. The final expression was bottled at 46% abv. 

The result is an expression with a nose that is elegant and floral with summer blossom, soft vanilla, and apricot. On the palate expect soft fudge with a hint of spice running throughout and layers of pineapple tart and toffee apple. The finish is long and refined with citrus and a continuation of the subtle spice. 

Crafted as a celebration of natural oak cask maturation, this single cask release from Kingsbarns has been aged for six years in an ex-Peated cask (no.1650751). The stunning Lowland expression was decanted into only 252 bottles, and presented at a robust 59% abv. Free from chill filtration and at natural colour.

Expect gentle smoke on the nose, along with sweet pear and earthy tobacco aromas. The palate is bursting with flavours of caramel shortbread, green apples and freshly baked banana bread, which lead to a medium length finish of delicate peat, new leather and demerara sugar.

Distilled at the Kingsbarns distillery in East Neuk, Fife, this Lowland single malt is the latest of their annual releases. This expression is a limited release matured in first-fill bourbon casks and shaved, toasted and re-charred red wine casks before being bottled at a cask strength of 61.8% abv.

The nose is dramatic with black cherry, tobacco and vanilla. The palate is bright and zesty, bursting with orange notes, before a satisfying finish with a touch of clove, ginger, and jammy rhubarb.

Distilled at the Kingsbarns distillery in East Neuk, Fife, comes this beautiful Lowland single malt presented in a stunning gift pack alongside two Glencairn Crystal glasses. This expression was matured in a combination of ex-bourbon barrels and STR barriques before being bottled at 46% abv. 

The nose is gentle with soft herbs, pineapple, and banana. The palate is rich with sweet pastry, vanilla, and sumptuous toffee before a spicy finish full of ginger and golden syrup.

The Ink of Legends has been matured for 12 years, with a finish in luxury Don Julio Añejo tequila casks. Bottled at bold 56.4% abv.

Fresh aromas of sea air, citrus and ripened berries are cut by an intense herbal smoke on the nose, while the creamy-smooth palate brings flavours of sweet plums, herbal smoke and touches of salt.
