Description
Why Auchentoshan Casks?
The History
Auchentoshan's rich history traces back to 1800 when John Bulloch established the distillery under the name Duntocher. Facing bankruptcy in 1822, his son took charge, officially registering Auchentoshan in 1823, marking the beginning of its legal Whisky production. Notably, Auchentoshan shifted ownership over the centuries, ultimately being acquired by the Japanese Suntory group. A pivotal moment occurred in 1969 when the distillery embraced Single Malt production, challenging the dominance of blended whiskies

The Whisky
Rooted in the Scottish Lowlands, Auchentoshan stands out by triple distilling all its whiskies, following a tradition that dates back to 1823. This meticulous process results in smooth, refined whiskies with minimal unwanted flavors. Auchentoshan's core range includes the American Oak, 12-year-old Auchentoshan, and the Three Wood, showcasing a soft and quiet distillery character. Older bottlings, like the 18-year-old or 21-year-old, reveal Auchentoshan's ability to produce complex whiskies that captivate connoisseurs.
The Production
Situated in the Glen between the hills Kilpatrick and the River Clyde, Auchentoshan draws clear spring water from Loch Cochno for distillation. With an annual production of 1.5 million liters, Auchentoshan's triple distillation process, in place since 1823, involves wash and spirit stills with a distinctive Lyne arm. Using unpeated malt and extended fermentation times, Auchentoshan creates fruity and citrusy flavors.
The Warehouses
Auchentoshan's estate houses dunnage and racked warehouses where casks are carefully stored. The distillery primarily uses bourbon barrels for maturation, but experiments include releases like Auchentoshan Virgin Oak, matured in fresh American oak casks. Guests can visit the rebuilt dunnage warehouse, a testament to Auchentoshan's resilience after being nearly destroyed during a bombing in 1941.
Consider investing in Auchentoshan casks for a unique blend of history, craftsmanship, and a tradition of producing exceptional whiskies.
