At Loch Lomond in Alexandria, we've recently invested £15 million into brand-new stills, and we can make fine single malts and some of the best grain whisky in Scotland on the same premises. Our highly efficient bottling plant at Glen Catrine in Ayrshire produces more than 40m bottles of whisky and other spirits each year in all standard sizes of bottles from 5cl to 4.5L.
Meanwhile, in Campbeltown, our Glen Scotia Distillery still looks much as it did in the 19th century when Duncan MacCallum constructed the malting floors that form the imposing frontage on the town's High Street. It's said the spirit of MacCallum haunts the building to this day, yet the distillery was refitted at the turn of the millennium, following 15 silent years, and today is in full and steady production.
As for our people, they've amassed whole lifetimes of shared experience. From coopers and maltsters to stillmen and blenders, our people share a deep love and knowledge of their craft. The same is true of our suppliers - whether we're sourcing American Oak bourbon casks or buying grain from Scottish farmers, we work with experts we know and trust.
OUR PEOPLE ARE AS VITAL TO OUR BRANDS AS GRAIN, MALT AND WATER. AFTER ALL IN WHISKY, THERE'S NO SUBSTITUTE FOR A GOOD EYE, A SUBTLE PALATE AND AN EXPERIENCED NOSE.
Loch Lomond marks the boundary between the Lowlands and the highlands of Scotland. This area has been at the heart of the whisky industry for centuries. Sadly, though, at least nine distilleries around the Loch have been lost over the years, leaving Loch Lomond Distillers to maintain a proud local tradition into the 21st century.
Campbeltown was reportedly, the ancient seat of the Scottish Parliament set up here by King Fergus in 503AD. Indeed the first site of the Scotia distillery in Parliament Street is said to be on the site from where the Stone of Destiny came, the stone on which all Scottish Monarchs were crowned.

The final legacy of Scotland’s oldest distillery.
