The Distillery

Strathclyde
Strathclyde Distillery, established in 1927 on Moffat Street near the River Clyde in Glasgow, is a historic Lowland grain whisky distillery. Equipped with two Coffey continuous stills for grain whisky production and five additional Coffey stills for neutral spirit, it plays a vital role in Scotch whisky blending. The distillery sources its water from Loch Katrine, nestled in the hills north of Glasgow. In 1957, the Kinclaith malt distillery was added to the complex but closed in 1975 and was dismantled in 1976, marking Strathclyde as a key part of Scotland’s whisky legacy.
