Meaning ‘Corner of the field’ in Gaelic, that’s left-bottom corner on our flavour map.
Antique records from the year 1800 mention an (illegal) Duntocher distillery, which may have been a predecessor to the legal Auchentoshan distillery. A license for distillation was obtained in 1823. It is the only Scottish distillery left employing a true full-time third distillation. This makes for a sweeter and more delicate Scotch, which is unique. The Distillery is located near Glasgow (that's why it's also known as Glasgow's Malt Whisky) in the Lowland region of Scotland.
Auchentoshan 12 Year Old is triple distilled, and matured for over twelve years. This Lowland single malt Scotch has the tempting aroma of toasted almonds, caramelised toffee and the signature smooth, delicate, Auchentoshan taste.

Must try the oak one
Steven,
Amazing
Charis,
Love. Dry enough to feel highland, but not so peaty to feel like you're drinking smoke. My new favorite, this one could be dangerous!
anonymous,
Smooth fruity and with a touch of spice. Gorgeous stuff!
Chris,
It's a light and sweet ride to start, then it opens up a bit in your mouth with a snap of citrus and malt then dries out for the finish to remind you that you just had a nip of good scotch! Really liked it.
