Founded by William Mitchell in 1872 who ran the distillery as a sole proprietor. Like the majority of Campbeltown distilleries, Glengyle suffered greatly during the economic downturn at the beginning of the 20th century. The distillery was bought by West Highland Malt Distilleries Ltd in 1919 then sold again in 1924 for the princely sum of £300, before production finally ceased altogether in 1925. In November 2000, 75 years after Glengyle had last produced spirit, it was announced that the buildings had been bought by a new company, Mitchell’s Glengyle Limited, headed by Mr Hedley Wright, chairman of J&A Mitchell and Co Ltd, and great-great nephew of William Mitchell, original founder of Glengyle.

Nose: Earthy, soft peat, herbal elements with a heady combination of minerals, lemons and digestive biscuits.

Palate: Lots of bright, zesty and tropical influence among the touches of gentle smoke and savoury coastal touches. A touch of water brings out the dried fruits on top of sooty, mineral-ly, peppery characteristics.

Finish: Dry and long with creamy sweetness. This is where the 4% Madeira casks (96% Bourbon casks) exerts its influence - giving a slight "pluminess" on the back palate.
