The Kilkerran 12 Year Old is an eagerly anticipated first core product from the renowned Glengyle Distillery, based in the historic Campbeltown region. This 12-year-old single malt whisky is lightly peated and non-chill filtered, offering a pure and unadulterated experience for whisky enthusiasts. Distilled at Glengyle, which was proudly reopened in 2004 after an almost 80-year hiatus, Kilkerran has quickly become a symbol of Campbeltown's rich distilling heritage. Micthells Glengyle Ltd. takes great pride in continuing and expanding the esteemed tradition of Campbeltown distilling, a legacy reflected in the name Kilkerran itself. Kilkerran is derived from the Gaelic "Ceann Loch Cille Chiarain," the original settlement where Saint Kieran had his religious cell, now known as Campbeltown. This name choice is particularly fitting, as it avoids the typical naming convention of old Campbeltown distilleries, which often mirrored the naming traditions of the Speyside region. Matured in a well-balanced combination of 70% bourbon casks and 30% sherry casks, this 12-year-old whisky presents a delightful array of flavors and aromas. At an ABV of 46%, and presented in a 700 ml bottle, this whisky captures the essence of Campbeltown's storied past while providing a thoroughly modern sipping experience.
Kilkerran 12 Year Old is unique due to its light peatiness and non-chill filtering process, combined with its maturation in both bourbon and sherry casks. This blend creates a complex, balanced flavor profile.
