Auchentoshan Whisky Distillery

Established in 1823, Auchentoshan (pronounced Ock-un-tosh-un) Distillery is on the mainland of Scotland, situated between Glasgow and Loch Lomond.

This lowlands malt distillery rests at the foot of the Kilpatrick Hills, overlooking the famous River Clyde, once renowned as the Scottish gateway to the world.

Auchentoshan, meaning ‘corner of the field’, produces a delicate, smooth and light single malt whisky.

The subtle aroma and flavour of its spirit is achieved by the unique triple distillation process, whereby the spirit is not distilled twice, as elsewhere in Scotland, but instead, distilled three times.

Step inside Auchentoshan Distillery and discover our story, our process and our place in the wider whisky world.

This hour-long tour will conclude with a dram in our tasting lounge.
