Sharing a production team and calendar with the neighbouring Springbank Distillery, Glengyle has a short production period of around three months per year, typically operational from October – December.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGlengyle is an independent, family run distillery based in Campbeltown, the historic whisky capital of the world.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe original Glengyle Distillery produced whisky between 1872-1925 but in 2004, after 79 non-producing years, the distillery reopened under Mitchell’s Glengyle Ltd in 2004.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis secured Campbeltown’s status as a whisky region.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eKilkerran is made with the same attention to detail as Springbank – no chill-filtering, bottled at 46%, like all the others.

With each annual release the maturation can vary slightly, thus giving enthusiasts a fresh take on the 16 year old with each year.
