- Description
- Ardbeg Kildalton is a 2014 limited release marrying bourbon-aged smoky and creamy whisky with first-fill and refill sherry cask expressions at 46% abv. The sherry casks contribute spice and dried fruit complexity that balances the smoke, creating a fuller, more nuanced profile than standard Ardbeg releases. This suits experienced peated whisky drinkers seeking depth beyond single-cask intensity.
