Lowland Single Malt Scotch Whisky

Region

Lowlands

Owner

Beam Suntory

Founded

1823 | John Bulloch

Situated in Clydebank in Glasgow, Auchentoshan is a typical lowland distillery. They are the only distillery in Scotland that exclusively triple distills their whisky. This results in a light, sweet and easy drinking spirit. None of what they produce goes into blends so it’s all for the single malt market which is unusual.
