Kilkerran Heavily Peated Batch No.5

Here we have the fifth batch of Kilkerran's Heavily Peated expression, which as you can expect from that name, boasts a hefty helping of smoke at its core. This single malt Scotch whisky from the Campbeltown region was allowed to age in a combination of 85% bourbon casks and 15% sherry casks, before being bottled at a robust 57.7% ABV.
