You've not truly experienced Smokehead Islay Single Malt Scotch Whisky until you've had it in its rawest form. Notes of oily walnuts, dark chocolate, and pepper seep through black, billowing smoke. Making each sip more thrilling than the last.
Machir Bay has a lovely balance of vanilla, smoky caramel and rich fruitiness, each contributing to complexity and combining to create a truly unique Islay drama.
Nose: Kilkerran Cadenhead 13 Year Old whisky is distinguished by intense aromas of ripe fruit, honey and vanilla, accompanied by notes of peat and smoke. Mouth: On the palate, this Scottish single malt reveals complex flavors of cereals, spices, dried fruit and dark chocolate, all sublimated by a salty touch characteristic of whiskies from the Campbeltown region. Finish: The finish of Kilkerran CDN 13 yo is long and warm, leaving lingering notes of candied fruit and spicy oak on the palate, for a rich, balanced taste experience.
Nose: Notes of subtly spiced cereals, mango, papaya and pea pods. Traces of hard toffee and light oak chips. A drop of water reveals notes of cinnamon brioche and salted caramel.
Mouth: Silky and fluid with an intense taste of sweet butterscotch, a spicy-dry and woody intensity. The addition of water softens the honeyed sweetness of the creamy, smooth Swiss milk chocolate, with just a hint of salt in the mid-palate. The mild spices now keep the sweetness in check.
Finish: Short and rather intense, with spicy chili pepper notes.
Nose: Peat smoke, sea salt, citrus peel, and earthy spice
Palate: Bold and smoky with notes of brine, pepper, and toasted oak
Finish: Long and intense with lingering smoke and coastal freshness
