When considering a name for a new Campbeltown Malt, Kilkerran emerged as a fitting choice, diverging from the convention of old Campbeltown distilleries usually adopting names associated with a Glen, a practice more commonly linked with the Speyside region.
Glengyle Distillery is a Scotch whisky distillery located in Campbeltown, Scotland. Establishing its official status in 2004, Glengyle Distillery's roots extend to the historic Glengyle Distillery, active in the 19th century before ceasing operations in 1925.
Owned by the Mitchell family, the distillery operates under the Mitchell's Glengyle Limited company. The Mitchells also own the renowned Springbank Distillery in Campbeltown. Many consider Kilkerran the "sister distillery" to Springbank, as it shares traditional production methods and a dedication to craftsmanship.
Kilkerran Heavily Peated Batch No. 10 maturation - 90% Bourbon and 10% Sherry.
Official Tasting Notes
Nose - A sweet introduction, there are notes of icing sugar, creme brulee and custard.
Palate - The peat smoke is soft and sweet, with notes of toasted marshmallows typical of the Kilkerran Heavily Peated range. Hints of gooseberries and parma violets develop over time.
Finish - The sweetness lingers in the finish in notes of orange pulp.
Limited to 1 bottle per customer
Tasting Rating Guide
1: Light, good for beginners - an aperitif on a summers day, i.e. Glengoyne, Auchentoshan
2: Also good for beginners but with more depth and body - a little stronger than 1, ie. Glenmorangie, Speyburn
3: A dram for everyone, a little more complex so the palate requires a little more experience, i.e. Cragganmore, Macallan
4: A stronger spirit, a big whisky with lots of character and body, excellent after dinner, i.e. Lagavulin, Laphroaig
