Bell Rock - Cask Strength
The popular Kingsbarns Bell Rock returns as a Cask Strength limited release for 2023, the first edition being bottled at 46% ABV and released in 2021.
This expression elegantly presents an artful fusion of 30% ex-Bourbon barrels and 70% ex-Oloroso sherry butts. The single malt is a fruity and spicy single cask strength whisky at 61.1% ABV and distilled using local Fife barley.
After the Kingsbarns spirit has been matured in these casks, the resulting whisky is filled with flavours of fruit & spice. Non-chilled filtered and natural colour.
Full of toffee and fruity character, Bell Rock is brimming with luscious pecan pie notes and subtle baked fruits.
With only 3600 bottles in total, make sure you get your hands on it.

About Kingsbarns Limited Releases
Made with locally-grown barley and water from our own source, the foundation of our whisky is our new make spirit. Carefully distilled with a particularly long fermentation process and taken from a high cut point, the Kingsbarns spirit style is characterized by a light elegance, and fruity, floral notes. Mindful of balance, we pair the spirit with the wood, marrying it with hand-selected casks to enhance and complement our signature profile. Released in small-batch quantities, our limited editions are examples of our experimentation into new avenues of whisky.
