Kilkerran Work in Progress #5 Sherry Wood
Single Malt
Kilkerran // Campbeltown, Scotland
Glengyle Distillery opened in 2004, over 125 years after it was initially founded by William Mitchell in 1872. Its history is colorful one, involving ownership changes, ceased whisky production, and multiple attempts by investors to re-open the distillery.
That eventually became reality when it was purchased by Hedley Wright, great-great nephew of Mitchell himself. While this Campbeltown distillery waits 12 years for its flagship whisky to mature, it has been releasing a line of "Work in Progress" whiskies.
