Glengyle Distillery Kilkerran 16 Year Old Single Malt Scotch Whisky 700ml

Located in Campbeltown, Glengyle Distillery is one of only three remaining distilleries in this historic whisky-producing region. Once known as the ‘whisky capital of the world’, Campbeltown was home to more than 30 distilleries in the 19th century, but only Springbank, Glen Scotia, and Glengyle remain today.

Glengyle Distillery has a rich history, beginning with the founding of the distillery by William Mitchell in 1872. After its closure in 1925, the distillery’s buildings were preserved and maintained, which allowed for its revitalisation in 2004. The distillery now produces Kilkerran Whisky, a single malt Scotch that embodies the region’s complex maritime character.

The philosophy behind the Kilkerran brand is deeply rooted in the principles of sustainability and respect for nature. The distillery uses traditional methods combined with a modern approach, such as using floor malting from its sister distillery, Springbank, to create a whisky that captures the region’s essence. Kilkerran Whisky offers a classic Campbeltown profile—with light peat, earthy aromas, and a salty finish, creating a distinctive and approachable style that celebrates the unique terroir of the region.

Today, Glengyle Distillery continues to honour its heritage while embracing innovation, ensuring that Kilkerran Whisky remains at the forefront of Scotland’s whisky scene.
