Auchentoshan. In a whisky landscape where single malts and new expressions are becoming more and more ubiquitous, every brand or distillery is jockeying for position and heralding its “point of difference”. Some hang their hat on geography (“We’re Scotland’s most northerly distillery”); some rely on taste (“The most richly flavoured Islay malt”); some rely on size (“Scotland’s smallest distillery”); and others lean on their corporate make-up (“Still family owned since 1860”).
Only one Scottish distillery, however, can declare that its production methods and spirit are different to every other Scotch single malt. And that distillery is Auchentoshan. For it is here and only here that the mystical and complex art of triple distillation is practiced on each and every drop of spirit produced.
