We’re once again delighted to open the distillery doors to friends from near and afar, in a celebration of Campbeltown and its rich whisky making heritage. As ever, our visitors can look forward to tours, tastings, entertainment, our annual dinner, and most importantly a great selection of drams throughout.
This is an incredibly special year for Glen Scotia, having been named Scottish Distillery of the Year 2021, and as such it is only right that we have some very special guests in attendance: alongside Iain McAlister and the distillery team, we’re delighted to be joined this year by whisky writer Charlie Maclean, drinks writer and presenter Becky Paskin, and Glen Scotia’s artist in residence Alice Angus.
Whether you’re coming to Campbeltown or joining our global gathering from afar, we look forward to raising a dram with you all.
