    Part of their limited core range, Kilkerran 8 year old cask strength is released annually, either as a one or two part release. While previous releases have included full maturations in Bourbon, Port and Sherry, with the latest releases fully matured in Oloroso Sherry giving this release a more spicy dimension. 

    You are first greeted with soft peat smoke, leather, and sticky toffee. Palate has the signature rich and earthy character of Kilkerran 8 y/o. The palate tastes of thick date syrup, red and black currants and sea spray. As the whisky develops in the glass, you get ashy medicinal smoke, ginger and chocolate oranges. Brilliant.

    Item does not come with external tube. Producer Note: “It is our intention to reduce the amount of packaging we use across our group of companies, from Springbank and Kilkerran to William Cadenhead Ltd, and that any we do use is produced and procured as sustainably as possible."

    Glengyle Distillery Kilkerran 8 Year Old Cask Strength Sherry Cask Matured Scotch Whisky 700ml
    Kilkerran

    A historic Campbeltown distillery reimagined in the 21st century, Glengyle Distillery was originally founded by William Mitchell, who had previously run Springbank Distillery with his brother John, under the direction of their father and founder of Springbank, Archibald Mitchell. A dispute between the two brothers, William and John, led the former to leave and start his own venture, Glengyle Distillery, in 1872. In 1919, Glengyle was sold to West Highland Malt Distilleries Ltd after suffering, as many distilleries did, from the economic downturn of the early 20th century. Production then completely ceased in 1925. Over the decades-long closure of the distillery, the buildings continued to be used by local clubs and companies and so the Glengyle buildings remained reasonably well-maintained compared to many other closed distilleries in Campbeltown.

    In the year 2000, the distillery was purchased by Mitchell’s Glengyle Ltd, headed by Hedley G Wright, then chairman of J&A Mitchell and great, great nephew of the original founder of Glengyle, William Mitchell. After his passing in 2023, Mr Wright’s shares in the company were transferred to three local trust funds to ensure that the community would continue to benefit from the company after his passing.
