What is the oldest Glengyle whisky you can buy?
Why is Glengyle's whisky called Kilkerran?
Because the Glengyle brand name had already been sold to the owners of Glen Scotia. The Mitchell family, who own Springbank, bought the silent site in 2000 and reopened it in 2004, the first new distillery in Campbeltown for 125 years. They named the whisky Kilkerran, from Cille Chiarain, the old Gaelic name for Campbeltown, and the first bottling came out in 2009.
