Glengoyne
Kilkerran Heavily Peated Batch 2 60.9%
55% Bourbon/ 45% Sherry
Tasted: Nov 2019
The nose is fresh and briny with a pleasant combination of ashy and sweet peat, violets, barley, crisp green apple and fish. Late vanilla custard powder notes.
The palate is fuller and shows more barley character. There is a touch of 'off the still' oiliness along with ashy pet, fish, brine and some very subtle sherrywood tannins. It darkens on the middle as the malt and dried fruit arrives. Mouth-watering and slightly masked finish with lingering ash and barley.
A drop of water bring out the barley and malt, making it feel fuller, but it has also emphasises the youthful off the still notes. Less peat intensity but a touch of oily tangerine and apricot can now be discerned. The palate is softer with more of a malty character. Again less peat and more oily, fishy spirit character. Long and fishy with more coastal notes and ash. In conclusion: As much as I like it, I still think it could do with a bit more time in the cask.
