About This Competition
Sticking with the Campbeltown theme, here’s another ‘Choose your Prize’ competition. This time, we feature 2 of the lesser known brands of Springbank. To peat or not to peat? That is the question. The contenders are:
A) Hazelburn 2007 -13 yr old (2021 Release). Springbank’s triple distilled unpeated malt, matured in 75% bourbon casks and 25% sherry casks. This release was limited to 6,300 bottles. Flavours of creamy strawberry jam, followed by orange zest and brandy snaps.
B) Kilkerran Heavily Peated Batch 4- Kilkerran’s heavily peated spirit is delicious and Batch 4 was matured in 80% ex bourbon and 20% ex-sherry casks and bottled at 58.6%. It’s complex whisky and tastes beyond its years. Peat smoke dominates with malty undertones of crushed digestive biscuits. A liquorice note develops as it opens up and there is a hint of sweetness, like sticky honey glazing. The finish is long with the strong peat smoke influence remaining alongside malty, cereal characteristics. A slight oakiness is detectable and coastal maritime flavours endure.
