Kilkerran 8 Year Old Sherry Cask Matured Scotch Whisky

Kilkerran 8 Year Old Sherry Cask Matured is a rich and sherry-sweetened Campbeltown single malt from Glengyle Distillery — the Mitchell family’s second Campbeltown distillery alongside Springbank, revived in 2004 after a 77-year closure, presenting the characteristic Campbeltown maritime and smoky base enriched by sherry cask maturation at 8 years.

Glengyle Distillery in Campbeltown was established in 1872, closed in 1925, and was revived in 2004 by the Mitchell family (owners of Springbank) as part of the effort to restore Campbeltown’s historic distilling heritage. Kilkerran is the Glengyle single malt — its name derived from the Old Norse ‘Ceann Loch Cill Chiarain’ (the original Gaelic name for Campbeltown). The 8-year Sherry Cask Matured presents the young Kilkerran character with the full influence of sherry cask maturation providing sweetness and dried fruit depth to the Campbeltown maritime base.
