Detailed Description
Released in December 2018, this is the 4th edition in Wolfburn’s Kylver Series, which features limited releases from “the odd special cask that delivers a distinctively good whisky”. It’s the first Kylver release to be made from lightly peated spirit and thus the first in a dark green bottle (a green Wolfburn bottle generally indicates a peated expression). The whisky was matured for around four years in a combination of first-fill bourbon barrels and second-fill quarter casks. Only 950 bottles produced. Naturally coloured and bottled at 50%.
Wolfburn Kylver Series Release 4 Scotch Whisky Tasting Notes

Palate: Fresh and sweet orange chocolate with more green apple, balanced by slightly sour notes of citrus zest and a whisper of peat smoke.
Finish: Chocolate returns, with a lingering freshness of green apple.
