Kilkerran Heavily Peated Batch 14 58.3%

The latest release in Kilkerran's highly sought-after Heavily Peated series, Batch 14 continues to showcase the unique balance of robust peat smoke and classic Campbeltown character that has made these annual releases a favourite among whisky enthusiasts.

Produced at Glengyle Distillery in Campbeltown, this small-batch single malt combines powerful smoky notes with layers of fruit, sweetness, and maritime influence. Bottled at a robust 58.3% ABV, Batch 14 delivers intensity and complexity while retaining the elegance and balance for which Kilkerran is renowned.

The nose opens with waves of earthy peat smoke intertwined with citrus fruits, vanilla, and sweet malt. On the palate, rich smoke is complemented by notes of orchard fruit, honeyed sweetness, warming spice, and subtle coastal salinity. The higher strength adds texture and depth, allowing the whisky's character to unfold beautifully with each sip. The finish is long, smoky, and satisfying, with lingering spice, oak, and gentle sweetness.

As with all Kilkerran releases, Batch 14 is presented at natural colour and without chill filtration, ensuring an authentic whisky experience that reflects both the spirit and its maturation.

A superb addition to the Heavily Peated range, this release offers a compelling combination of Campbeltown complexity and smoky intensity.
