Founded in 1832, Glen Scotia is one of the few remaining distilleries in this once thriving whisky region. The distillery has gone through several ownership changes and periods of closure, but remains an important name in the Scotch whisky world.

A specific feature of Glen Scotia is its combination of traditional and modern production methods. The distillery produces a wide range of whiskies, from light and elegant to rich and smoky. Glen Scotia is known for its complex flavour profiles, often characterised by maritime influences such as saltiness, combined with notes of fruit, vanilla and spices.

The whiskies are matured in various cask types, including bourbon and sherry casks, which contributes to the depth and complexity of the flavours. Glen Scotia's unique location and rich history make it a fascinating distillery, continuing the tradition and innovation of Campbeltown whiskies.
