I haven’t had the Kilkerran 12 Year since its very first release back in 2016, and that was at @sandybellsedinburgh in Scotland! About time I said hello to it again. Sláinte! This third edition of Westward Milestone has been widely lauded as a Best of 2025. I certainly do love it, though frankly some of that year’s Westward Club Releases I loved even more. But this unique single malt certainly does warm a chilly day. Cheers! This cask strength Ben Nevis is a sherry bomb. Proper notes to come—mmmaybe. I’ve developed a bit of sherry fatigue, so, might not be fair to assess it. I’ll see how it airs out and circle back… Cheers!
