KILKERRAN - 16 years - 46% - 2025 Edition
In the heart of Campbeltown, the iconic Scotch whisky region, Kilkerran 16 Year Old 2025 Edition showcases the ancestral expertise of the Glengyle distillery. This exceptional single malt reflects the richness of the terroir of the Kintyre peninsula, where maritime influence, delicate peat, and the temperate climate infuse each bottle with a unique and sought-after identity. At Clos des Spiritueux , we offer this essential reference, a true gem for any lover of rare and authentic Scotch whisky.
The result of a meticulous blend of bourbon and sherry casks, Kilkerran 16 Year Old 2025 Edition offers a perfect harmony between aromatic power and elegance. The bourbon casks bring indulgent notes of vanilla, honey, coconut, and dried apricot, while the sherry casks enrich the profile with deep aromas of candied fruit, sweet spices, cocoa, and dried fruit. This sixteen-year aging process enhances the malt character while preserving a beautiful saline freshness, a hallmark of Campbeltown whiskies.
On the nose, Kilkerran 16 Year Old reveals great complexity: acacia honey, orange peel, toasted almonds, fine leather, dried figs, enhanced with a marine, slightly smoky and iodized touch. On the palate, the texture, ample and elegant, imposes itself with precision: blond caramel, roasted hazelnuts, dates, dried fruits and creamy malt, magnified by a fine salinity and a subtle peaty note. Its finish is long, persistent, remarkably balanced, on polished oak, beeswax and dark chocolate, revealing all the complexity of the single malt.
At 46%, the 2025 version of Kilkerran 16 Year Old achieves an ideal balance between intensity and accessibility, perfect neat or with a touch of water. Enjoy it with mature cheese, a dark chocolate dessert, or pair it with a cigar for an unforgettable tasting experience. This limited edition is available on our online store Clos des Spiritueux , a reference for lovers of great Scottish whiskies.
Kilkerran 16 Year Old 2025 Edition is a perfect synthesis of the Campbeltown style: an authentic single malt with a maritime, complex, and distinguished profile. It demonstrates the exceptional expertise of the Glengyle distillery and confirms the prestige of its terroir among connoisseurs around the world.
