Kilkerran Heavily Peated is a bold single malt crafted in small batches, released twice yearly at cask strength with around 45PPM of peat. Primarily matured in Bourbon casks, it offers a smoky profile of campfire embers and peat, balanced by notes of custard, key lime pie, rye bread, and a touch of minerality on the finish.
