The Whisky
Kilkerran Heavily Peated Batch 12 is a cask strength Campbeltown single malt from Glengyle Distillery, bottled at 58.4% alc/vol. Made from malt peated to around 45 ppm, this small batch release is matured predominantly in ex-bourbon casks (90%) with a touch of ex-sherry (10%). It is bottled at natural colour and non-chillfiltered, staying true to the distillery’s traditional approach and offering an authentic, full powered expression of Campbeltown peat.
Our Tasting Notes
Nose: the whisky opens with creamy butterscotch, vanilla caramel, and a touch of sweet cereal before shifting into rye bread earthiness and gentle tea leaf notes.
Palate: Full bodied, oily, and smoky, delivering a mix of savoury Iberico ham richness alongside sweet brandy snap biscuits and bright citrus hints.
Finish: Long and layered, showing lemon sherbet, honeycomb, mint, and an enduring thread of warm peat smoke. A few drops of water reveal more mint, malt sweetness, and coastal character.
The Distillery
Glengyle Distillery, revived in the early 2000s by the Mitchell family (who also own Springbank), produces Kilkerran—one of the few authentic Campbeltown whiskies. The distillery is known for its hands-on production methods, traditional floor malting through Springbank, and small-batch releases that highlight the region’s distinctive coastal, lightly industrial, and subtly funky profile. The Heavily Peated line, often called “Peat in Progress,” showcases Glengyle’s exploration of richer, smokier styles while retaining Campbeltown’s signature complexity.
The Blender
Kilkerran Heavily Peated Batch 12 is assembled by the Glengyle production and blending team, who select casks from their maturing stock to balance sweetness, savoury depth, and robust peat. Rather than a single master blender, the whisky reflects the collaborative house style of the Mitchell family’s whiskymakers—craftspeople who focus on traditional methods, minimal intervention, and maintaining consistency across the evolving batch series.
