The Distillery
Glengyle
Glengyle Distillery, originally founded in 1872 in Campbeltown at the foot of the Kintyre Peninsula, is a storied landmark in Scotland’s renowned Highland whisky region. After ceasing operations in 1925, the distillery sold all malt whisky stock and removed its equipment, leaving only the historic buildings intact. In 2000, Hedley Wright, proprietor of Springbank Distillery and a descendant of William Mitchell, acquired the surviving structures and undertook a meticulous refurbishment. Glengyle Distillery was successfully reopened in 2004, now equipped with two small stills and operating for one to two months each year to produce its esteemed single malt whisky known as Kilkerran. Since its revival, Glengyle has released regular batches of Work in Progress, culminating in the introduction of the highly anticipated Kilkerran 12 Year Old in 2016. This revival not only honors the distillery’s rich heritage but also contributes to the vibrant Campbeltown whisky landscape, making Glengyle Distillery a cherished destination for whisky enthusiasts and collectors seeking authentic and exceptional single malts.
