Founded in 1832, Glen Scotia is one of just three distilleries in Campbeltown and one of the smallest distilleries in Scotland. Glen Scotia has always produced two styles of whisky; peated and non peated. Typically the peated whisky is produced over a period of 6 weeks per year. These two styles will be maintained into the future as they are characteristics of the Campbeltown style which
Glen Scotia is known for.
Over the years the quality of the whisky has improved with longer fermentation and vatting
of the malted barley as well as a slower and more careful distillation. But overall the
process remains the same as it always was. Although we no longer malt our own barley we
buy in Scottish malted barley to our exact specification in order tomaintain the true
Glen Scotia character through our distilling process.
