The St. Kilian Kiliani Edition HEDAN is a special tribute to the distillery’s namesake – the Irish missionary St. Kilian, who came to Franconia in the 7th century. This exclusive special edition was created to mark the Kiliani folk festival in Würzburg and combines the craftsmanship of St. Kilian Distillers with regional tradition and modern whisky-making.

HEDAN whisky is produced in the Lower Franconian village of Rüdenau – made entirely from 100 % malted barley and double-distilled in original Scottish copper stills. It was matured in a combination of ex-bourbon barrels and French oak casks, giving this whisky a pleasant balance of sweetness, wood and spice. Bottled at 46 % vol., it is neither chill-filtered nor coloured – an honest German single malt that combines quality and character.

Tasting Note

Colour: Light gold with warm highlights.

Nose: Fruity and well-balanced with aromas of ripe apple, vanilla, honey and a hint of toasted wood.

Palate: Round and smooth with notes of light caramel, biscuit, oak, spices and a subtle fruit sweetness.

Finish: Medium-length, pleasantly dry with a warm, slightly spicy oak note.

The Kiliani Edition HEDAN is ideal for enjoying neat, though a drop of water is also recommended to open up the range of aromas. The whisky pairs superbly with regional specialities such as mild mountain cheese, pretzels or Franconian bratwurst. It also showcases its finely balanced profile when paired with a light apple strudel or a caramel dessert. A characterful yet approachable bottling – typical of St. Kilian, typical of Franconia.
