Glenkinchie Distillery

Glenkinchie Distillery, originally established as Milton Distillery in 1825 by John Rate near Pencaitland in East Lothian, is a distinguished producer of Speyside single malt Scotch whisky. Despite operating with just two stills, Glenkinchie features one of the largest wash stills in Scotland, ensuring robust and consistent whisky production. The distillery’s spirit is uniquely cooled using traditional cask iron worm tubs fed by the serene Kinchie Burn, imparting a distinctive character to its offerings. Today, the historic maltings have been beautifully converted into a state-of-the-art museum and visitor centre, where whisky enthusiasts can enjoy immersive distillery tours and complimentary samples. Glenkinchie’s esteemed single malt range includes the beloved Glenkinchie 12 Year Old and the exclusive Distillers Edition, both celebrated for their exceptional quality and refined flavors. Nestled in the heart of Speyside, Glenkinchie Distillery remains a premier destination for those seeking an authentic and enriching Scottish whisky experience, blending rich heritage with modern excellence.
