Product Description

Kilkerran Heavily Peated Batch No. 7 is a single malt Scotch whisky produced by the Glengyle Distillery, located in the Lowlands region of Scotland. Glengyle is a relatively new distillery, having been re-established in 2004 after a long period of dormancy. Kilkerran is the distillery's core range of single malts, and is known for its use of heavily peated barley to produce a distinctive and smoky flavor profile. The reference to "Heavily Peated" indicates that this expression of Kilkerran has been made with malted barley that has been heavily peated, or treated with smoke from peat fires. This results in a strong and smoky flavor in the whisky, making it a good choice for fans of peaty, smoky whiskies. Batch No. 7 indicates that this is the seventh release of this particular expression, making it a collectible item for whisky enthusiasts. As a single malt Scotch whisky, Kilkerran Heavily Peated Batch No. 7 is likely to have a complex flavor profile with notes of smoke, peat, and malt, as well as a mild sweetness from the oak cask maturation. The exact character of the whisky will depend on a variety of factors, including the type of casks used for maturation, the length of time it was aged, and the production methods used at the distillery. However, as a heavily peated whisky from the Kilkerran range, it is likely to be a rich and smoky whisky with a well-balanced flavor profile that makes it a good choice for fans of peaty, smoky whiskies.

About The Brand: Kilkerran

The long-running Glengyle distillery at Campbeltown, Argyll & Bute, which produced Scotch whisky, shut down in 1925. It underwent a complete redesign in 2000 to become the first new Scottish distillery of the new millennium. Its single malts are sold in bottles bearing the Kilkerran brand. William Mitchell started the Glengyle distillery, which was finished in 1873. The distillery's roof was destroyed by a storm soon after it was finished in 1873. Prior to a disagreement with his brother John, with whom he owned Springbank Distillery, Mitchell was associated with that business. However, after the argument, Mitchell joined his other brothers at Reichlachan Distillery before setting off on his own. Due to the post-war economic depression, which was severely hurting all of the distilleries in the Campbeltown Region, the distillery was sold in 1919. It was put up for auction once more in 1923 and sold for £350 (equivalent to £21,200 in 2021) in 1924. By 1925, production had ended and the remaining stock had been disposed off. Due to the Second World War, both a second effort by Campbell Henderson Ltd. in the 1950s and an attempt to revive the distillery by Sir Maurice Bloch—who, together with his brother, also controlled the Glen Scotia distillery—which had been used as a rifle range—failed. In order to renovate the Glengyle distillery, Mitchell's Glengyle Ltd. was established in late 2000. Mr. Hedley Wright, a member of the Mitchell Family, who were the founding proprietors of both companies, is in charge of both Mitchell's Glengyle and the Springbank Distillery. The buildings were adequately repaired during the course of the subsequent four years, being restored in keeping with the neighborhood and the structures' listed status. New stills, malt mills, a mash tun, and washbacks were erected along with new equipment because the previous distillery's equipment had been discarded in the 1920s. In actuality, much of alcohol was not brand-new; rather, it came from other distilleries that had either stopped producing altogether or had excess stock.
