Kilkerran 8 Year Old Campbeltown Single Malt Scotch Whisky 111.2 Proof 2026 Release

An energetic and beautifully expressive Campbeltown malt that showcases the purity of bourbon oak and heavily peated spirit. The nose is vibrant, offering butterscotch, custard cream biscuits and apple butter alongside poached pear, vanilla sponge and a savory touch of white miso. Full-bodied with a rich, oily texture. The palate is remarkably composed for the high proof, revealing layers of shortbread, caramel-coated chocolate and ripe gooseberries before white grapes, sandalwood and refined cigar-box smoke bring depth and complexity. The peat is integrated rather than overpowering, lending earthy ash and maritime character instead of medicinal intensity. The finish is long, mineral and savory, with green peppercorn, honeydew melon, sea salt and lingering wood ash adding freshness and precision. Intensely flavored yet exceptionally balanced, this is a cask-strength whisky that delivers both power and elegance.
