Kilkerran Work In Progress 5 – Bourbon Wood

12 October 2013

One of 2 releases for the 5th incarnation of 'Work in Progress' by Glengyle Distillery

Tasting:
Color: Hay
Nose: This is evidently a Campbeltown dram. The waxy, lightly smoky nose with hints of leather gives away the origin of this dram. Rich and creamy with hints of American cream soda, apricots, dark fruit and linseed.
Palate: Just like previous WIPs the tangy orange and citrus marmalade notes remains. A little bit sweeter than previous WIP releases, with clear presence of apricot jam. There is a great weight of Campbeltown sea air present. Very smooth and fruity.
Finish: Fresh, sweet yet dry finish.

Distilled at Mitchell's Glengyle Distillery in Campbeltown
First distilled on the 25th of March 2004
Kilkerran Single Malt is lightly peated, double distilled, not chill filtered or coloured and bottled at 46%
