This expression, aged for a minimum of 18 years, showcases the distillery's commitment to traditional craftsmanship and exceptional quality. In appearance, Glen Scotia 18 Year Old presents a deep amber hue, hinting at the indulgent flavors that await.
Glen Scotia distillery is located in Campbeltown, the “capital” of Scotch whisky. It is one of the smallest distilleries and one of the three that still operate in Campbeltown.
The distillery was founded in 1832 by Stewart, Galbraith & Co under the name of Scotia distillery. They remained the owners until 1895. During the whisky crisis that began in the early 20th century, the distillery formed West Highland Malt Distilleries in 1919,in order to share costs.
Still the problems remained and 5 years later the distillery would be sold to Duncan McCallum in 1924. In 1928 the distillery was forced to close and remained silent until 1930. After McCallum commited suicide in the same year (rumours say that his ghost still haunt the distillery) Bloch Bros would become the new owners and added “Glen” in the distillery’s name.
Several changes in ownership status took place in the following years, along with the distillery being closed again in 1984 for five years. The distillery was mothballed again in 1994 until 1999 when current owners, Loch Lomond Distillers took charge.
Nowadays the distillery provides a range of its own single malt bottlings and further expansion is expected.
