The 2024 Campbeltown Malts Festival will take place from 20th – 25 May this year, with the Kilkerran Open Day on Friday 24th May. This year’s festival bottling is a 20 year old Kilkerran matured for 10 years in rum casks followed by 10 years in Bourbon casks, available in a 35cl bottle for £140.

This year Kilkerran Single Malt was proud to sponsor the Kintyre Way Ultra on 11th May. This challenge saw participants run the scenic but challenging 50.5km route from Tayinloan to Tarbert. Our own ‘Kilkerran Team’, David, Ranald and Fiona, took part in the relay race and were thrilled to finish in third place!

More information on the route and event is available here.

Kilkerran is once again sponsoring the Mull of Kintyre Triathlon series, with the first race taking place on Saturday 4th May at the Aqualibrium in Campbeltown.

March 25th 2024 marked 20 years since the re-opening of Glengyle Distillery and the first distillation of Kilkerran, and we plan to celebrate this anniversary over the course of the year.

The celebrations kicked off with free tours of Glengyle Distillery on the week of the anniversary, and the addition of Kilkerran duty paid samples to the “cage” in the Distillery Shop. We also added a tasting flight to our Washback Bar comprised of bottlings from the first six Kilkerran casks filled.

We will continue to announce our celebration plans over the course of the year, so stay tuned.

The latest edition of our 8yo cask strength range was released in March, matured in 100% Oloroso casks. In March we also released our core range 12yo Kilkerran after a brief hiatus.

The next Kilkerran limited release will be Heavily Peated batch 10, due to be released soon.
