Auchentoshan Distillery

Hidden in a valley between the undulating hills of Kilpatrick and the River Clyde, a little north of the city of Glasgow, lies the magnificent estate of Auchentoshan in the heart of the West Scottish Lowlands. Sheep graze on the green meadows in the shadow of the surrounding larch trees. Hence the name Auchentoshan, which translates as "field blanket".

With clear water from the Highlands for the brewing process, a real specialty at Auchentoshan, Loch Cochno in the Kilpatrick Hills feeds the rustic, old distillery that has proudly maintained its unique triple distillation process since 1823.
This old process produces a light, smooth whisky that is nevertheless full of character and refinement.
This ease of expression does not mean a lack of character; it is part of the style of the area. Auchentoshan is, in its understated way, a clear malt of great complexity, offering a perfect alternative to the powerful style of the other regions in its finesse.
