Part of the Kilkerran limited core range, this 8 year old cask strength (55.6% abv) annual release was distilled at Glengyle distillery in Campbeltown, and was laid down in bourbon casks for at least eight years before being bottled free from chill filtration and artificial colourings at a natural cask strength of 55.6% abv.

Expect a nose of key lime pie, apple jelly, honey and vanilla, a palate of creamy banoffee pie, vanilla custard and panna cotta. The finish draws a sea salt and brine conclusion with a final flourish of gorse.

Nose: floral, vanilla and sweet banana.

Palate: cocoa nibs, Iberico ham, earthy peat smoke and tropical fruits.

Finish: peat smoke lingers with a digestive biscuit note.

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. 

New for 2026, Batch 13 of the Kilkerran Heavily Peated continues the trend of excellence in this range! Part of a collection of annual releases which sit at around 45ppm and which are matured in a selection of 90% bourbon and 10% sherry casks, these releases never fail to impress and satisfy.

Bottled at 57.9% abv, this Campbeltown number has a nose of creamy butterscotch, banana fritters and elderflower, which lead to a palate of peat smoke, honeydew melon and Iberico ham. The finish continues the sumptuous smoky theme, laced with verbena and honeycomb.
