Tasting
How it drinks
Sight
Deep mahogany-brown with rich ruby undertones from the dominant sherry cask influence; the port component adds extra depth
Nose
Blackberry jam, walnuts, liquorice, subtle smokiness. Red fruits, grapefruit, cola, lime, light peat. The 90% sherry component creates rich, dark fruit-forward nose with the 10% port adding sweet complexity
Palate
Peat smoke continues with black forest gateau, maraschino cherries, dates, dark chocolate ganache. Smooth sweet cherry, funk, chocolate, grapefruit. The port cask component gives more sweet notes and complexity than previous batches. Rich and deeply satisfying
Finish
Long, gentle finish with coffee beans, sea salt, peat smoke. The sherry and port work together to create a finish that balances sweetness, smoke and maritime salinity. Exceptional value for an 18-year peated Campbeltown single malt
