Kilkerran 8 Year Old Single Malt - Cask Strength, Bourbon Cask Matured**

Kilkerran 8 Year Old Cask Strength Bourbon Cask Matured is a robust single malt Scotch whisky from the Glengyle Distillery in Campbeltown, Scotland. Produced by the Mitchell's Glengyle Ltd., the brand takes its name from the Gaelic 'Ceann Loch Cille Chiarain', which refers to the original settlement where Campbeltown stands today. The distillery was rebuilt and resumed production in 2004, and this specific 55.8% ABV expression (Batch #8) is part of a limited annual series released to showcase the maturing stocks of the distillery.
