Auchentoshan is a Scottish distillery located near Glasgow in the Lowlands, founded in 1823. Its proximity to the River Clyde and Glasgow facilitates distribution, while its name, derived from Gaelic, means "corner of the field." The distillery is unique for its triple distillation method, which is rare among Scottish distilleries and imparts a lighter, more refined character to its whisky, making it a popular entry point for Scotch enthusiasts. Auchentoshan remains part of the Beam Suntory portfolio and continues to use traditional methods in its production.

Auchentoshan Aged 21 Years is a single malt whisky that has matured in second fill sherry casks. As the casks have already been used once, the sherry influence is no longer very dominant, leaving more room for the soft and fresh notes of the distillate itself.

Nose: Sweet notes of dried fruit, honey, and fine sherry with a light hint of citrus and spice.

Taste: Smooth, with notes of caramel, vanilla, nuts, and dried fruit, creating a complex and harmonious taste.

Finish: Medium length, balanced with lingering notes of sherry, light woodiness, and sweet spicy elements.

This whisky is a popular choice for lovers of sophisticated and lighter whiskies that do not lose their complexity.
