Description
Glen Scotia is just one of the tiniest Scotch whisky distilleries in Scotland but one of the big names of Campbeltown. Our beautiful distillery still keeps much of its original design, including the mash tun, the stillroom and the dunnage storehouse dating from the 1830s. The last century saw stormy times for the whisky distilleries of Campbeltown, yet our tradition endures.
Rich in initial features as well as equipment, Glen Scotia is an evocative and unique place to function, in addition to see. We work hard to maintain the distillery's historic structures as well as functions with treatment and pride and love showing visitors around.
To now, we're complying with in the steps of our founders, distilling whisky making use of traditional techniques, meticulously producing the one-of-a-kind Campbeltown maritime style we've come to be world renowned for.
But we make more than whisky at Glen Scotia. In the courtyard you'll find two hives, where our resident bees produce their tasty honey.
Glen Scotia has constantly produced two designs of whisky-- peated as well as non peated. Normally our peated whisky is transformed for a duration of 6 weeks per year.
Over the years the top quality of our whisky has grown, with longer fermentation and also vatting of the malted barley, as well as a slower and extra careful distillation. But generally the process has remained the very same. Although we no longer malt our very own barley, we acquire in Scottish malted barley to our exact specification in order to keep true Glen Scotia personality via our distilling process. We 'd enjoy welcoming you to Glen Scotia.
Campbeltown is a really special location in Scotland, described as 'the centre of the universe' by several of its present residents. With an abundance of abundant farmland, local barley, peat and fresh water, it was almost unavoidable it would certainly end up being a vital part of the background of whisky distilling.
