Killowen The Dalriadan Part 2 Of 2
Part 2 of Killowen's The Dalriadan series is here at last! Made from 60% double distilled peated malt, originating in Caol Ila Distillery, aged completely in ex-bourbon hoggs head and 40% 11-year-old Malt from County Antrim, finished for three years in Oloroso Butts. These are then blended together before undertaking a finishing of 10 months in both PX sherry casks and Killowen Dark Rum. This blend of rich and smokey meets light and fruity produces an 11 year old malt whiskey with stunning flavours of peated malt with enticing dried apricot, lemon and figs.

Tasting Notes from Celtic Whiskey Shop and Wines on the Green
Finish
This just keeps coming, turf, figs, dates & Christmas pudding. lots of cigar leaf but there seems to be a real lathery texture among that deep peaty smoke with very light citrus notes and even coconut flakes.
Tasting Notes from the Producer
Aromas (without water)
Treacle, Fruit Salad Sweets at the start, then with apricot, Lemon and Pineapple coming to the fore, not forgetting the Atlantic turf fire in the background with coconut & Christmas pudding mix before baking.
Flavour
The same as the last time Crumbly Wensleydale, that wensleydale you get with fruit, maybe bits of dried apricot, lemon and figs. Ahh that loving turf note that we all know.
