Auchentoshan ‘Ock-un-tosh-un’ Distillery is found on the banks of the River Clyde just nine miles from Glasgow. Auchentoshan has been distilled since 1823 and means ‘corner of the field’. Auchentoshan is the only distillery in Scotland to triple distill all year round and is one of only 6 distilleries in the large Lowland region. The reason for the third distillation is believed to create a very light and fruity spirit which allows it to mature very well in oak casks. The Japanese company, Suntory who also own Bowmore and Glen Garioch owns Auchentoshan. The distillery has three stills, one wash still, one intermediate still and one spirit still. The distillery produces about 1,700,000 litres a year. House Style: Light, lemom grassy, oily. Best as an Aperitif or restorative.
