About Glen ScotiaScotland
Glen Scotia is a distillery at 12 High Street in Campbeltown, on the Kintyre Peninsula in Scotland. It was founded in 1832 as Scotia by Stewart & Galbraith and Company, and it still keeps much of its original design, including fermenters, stillroom and a dunnage warehouse from the 1830s. Production stopped in 1942 during the Second World War and started again in early 1945, and the distillery passed through several owners before the Loch Lomond Group bought it in 2014. Its whisky is known for a Campbeltown style of tropical fruit, coastal salinity and an oily mouthfeel. Its yearly limited releases grew out of the Campbeltown Malts Festival, with editions such as a 15 year old rum finish in 2019 and a 14 year old tawny port finish in 2020.
