Kilkerran Scotch Whisky Tasting note..


Nose: An initial burst of perfume leads you into a sweet, fruity and eventally spicy aroma.

Palate: Cloves, more fruits and sweetness, Still at work in progress, this whisky is already lively, zesty and full of flavour.

Finish: The sweetness lasts all the way to the finish as vanilla flavours linger on the tongue.
