Glengyle Distillery is " up and running " again with mashing and distillation being carried out until May 22 nd. During this time a total of around 54,000 litres of alcohol will be produced which will mean that almost 423 barrel equivalents of Mitchell`s Kilkerran malt will be warehoused this year . Stuart Robertson is making his mark at Glengyle and is trying to get better extraction from the mash tun . With his experience I have no doubt that he will succeed . The Springbank production team are enjoying their short break away from home at Glengyle where they have the opportunity to operate some " new fangled " equipment . Of course Glengyle will soon have whisky available with the second of the distillations carried out during 2004 becoming three years old on May 4 Th. Sounds like a great excuse for a party , watch this space .... The first distillation carried out during March 2004 has been filled into six specially selected casks from differing wood types and will be bottled during 2014 . This bottling will be strictly limited to 700 bottles from each cask .
