Glen Scotia Distillery

Best Whisky in the World 2021 and Best Scotch Whisky 2022 at OSWA

Glen Scotia was formerly known as 'Scotia' when it was first founded in 1832. The “Wee Toon” was known as the Victorian Whisky Capital of the World. At its peak in the 1800s, there were 36 distilleries in this small town. Now we have just 3 remaining distilleries. In 2014, the distillery was bought by Loch Lomond Group who have invested heavily in the site by developing the brand, increasing capacity, opening warehouses and developing a distillery visitor centre. Today, the distillery still maintains much of its original design, including the mashtun, the stillroom and the dunnage warehouse which dates back to the 1830s. Glen Scotia Distillery currently operates with just 14 employees! Current production capacity is just over 700,000 litres of spirit per year. The visitor centre is open to the public and runs daily distillery tours and tastings, with a Victorian style shop to purchase the whisky, branded merchandise and other goods. Advanced booking is highly recommended for all tours and tastings - walk-ins can not be guaranteed. Voted Campbeltown's Number 1 Attraction on TripAdvisor!
