Kildalton 15 Year Old 2009 Rockpool x Casa de Vinos 700ml | 51.1%

An excellent example of a middle aged Kildalton with plenty of character and texture. We bottled this Kildalton for our 15th Anniversary in 2025 and in collaboration with Rockpool Bar & Grill in Southbank, Melbourne. 

 

Nose: Clean elegant peat with classic ash and hay before bold notes of citrus, iodine, mineral slate and earthy yellow fruits. 

Palate: Oaky tones now apparent alongside more clean peat with oysters, slight menthol, iodine and more citrus ash. Touches of smoked vanilla and dried lemon peel appear after some time. 

Finish: More oyster saltiness and minerality with sweet peat and citrus; a bold yet elegant Kildalton. 

 

Independent Bottlings

Independent bottlings are spirit merchants, both companies and individuals, who purchase casks from distilleries and bottle under their own brand or label. These spirits are often unique expressions of distilleries and often released without dilution or chill-filtration at cask strength, as such they offer an unrestricted view of a distillery’s character and distinct style. An unavoidable side effect of bottling single casks is that once a cask is empty it’s gone forever; every single cask, even ones maturing next to each other, are all slightly and noticeably different.
