Auchentoshan distillery is a single malt whisky distillery in the west of Scotland. The name Auchentoshan is from Gaelic Achadh an Oisein and translates as "corner of the field". The distillery is also known as "Glasgow's Malt Whisky" due to its proximity to Glasgow and "the breakfast whisky" due to its sweet and delicate nature. Auchentoshan is located at the foot of the Kilpatrick Hills on the outskirts of Clydebank in West Dunbartonshire near the Erskine Bridge.
Region
We’re the city’s single malt and just like the ever- changing city we were born in, we’ve taken progress and diversity to our hearts.
Spirit
We make a beer: At its purest, whisky production is beer distilled.
We triple distil it: And we’re the only Scottish Single Malt distillery to insist on triple distillation for every last drop.
We wait: We add our not-so-secret final ingredient: Time.
