Kilkerran 16 Year Old 2024 Release is a highly anticipated and well-received single malt whisky from Glengyle Distillery in Campbeltown. This edition is made up of 70% bourbon casks, 20% sherry casks and 10% rum casks, and is bottled at 46% ABV with no artificial colourings or chill filtration.

The tasting notes for this release highlight its complexity and balance.

Nose: Lightly malty with a subtle smoky flavour, showcasing the characteristics of the single malt ingredients, with hints of minerality, lemon, digestive biscuit and earthiness.

Palate: Well-balanced with an additional layer of sweetness and subtle dried fruit. Mediterranean herbs, saltiness and earthy peat characterise the palate, creating a complex flavour profile.

Finish: Long, with hints of minerality, oak and chocolate.

Whisky lovers have praised the 2024 release for its exceptional balance and ability to express Campbeltown's character without overwhelming it. Some reviewers suggest that those who are put off by the potentially strong initial alcohol profile should allow the bottle to sit open for some time, even several months, to fully appreciate its character.

Kilkerran 16 Year Old continues to be very popular and is considered to represent excellent value for its quality. It is often compared favourably to other Campbeltown whiskies, including Springbank, due to its good value for money and high quality, and is considered by some to be one of the best 16-year-old single malts of the modern era.
