Glen Scotia is located in the Campbeltown whisky producing region on the Kintyre Peninsula west of Scotland. The distillery has stood the test of time being one of the last surviving in the region. Once there were up to thirty distilleries now Glen Scotia is one of only three currently in operation. The distillery was founded in 1832 by the families of Stewart and Galbraith. With Loch Lomond Group now at the helm there has been much investment in making the brand as popular as it is today. Glen Scotia impressively won Scotland’s Distillery Of The Year in 2021 at the Scotch Whisky Awards. The Glen Scotia 25 year old and the none age statement Victoriana have also won recent notable awards. A lot of the building’s design dating back to the 1830’s has remained the same which includes the fermenter, dunnage warehouse and stillroom. The single malts produced are wide-ranging and you can find peated and unpeated styles in the portfolio.
