Production Details:
Distilled in one of Scotland’s last working distilleries from the historic Campbeltown region, Glen Scotia marries traditional craftsmanship with modern precision.

Everything, from fermentation to cask selection, is done on-site, ensuring that each bottle carries the unmistakable fingerprint of its place of origin.
