Yep. WIP 6, bourbon cask.
Very good, typically Campbelltown and we'll worth the price when they were released. Looking forward to the first proper core bottling with an age statement, I'll be buying one. _________________ "Too much of anything is bad, but too much good whisky is barely enough." |

| Both Kilkerran WIP 5 and 6 bourbon cask have been very good, and the WIP 5 and 6 sherry cask expressions were not too far behind them in quality. |

I would have thought most, if not all, have sold out. They are stock from previous years and limited. I believe the core bottling will be coming out this year as a full blown 12yo with a steady supply. As it's the same whisky effectively, just a bit older, the quality should remain high. _________________ "Too much of anything is bad, but too much good whisky is barely enough." |

I had the opportunity to try the #1 released in 2009 at a tasting. An interesting dram. _________________ "Always carry a large flagon of whisky in case of snakebite and furthermore always carry a small snake."
