About the distillery
Auchentoshan Distillery, region Lowland, located by Glasgow, was founded in 1817 by John Bullock. Originally the distillery was named Duntusche Distillery, in 1822 John's son was passed ownership of the distillery but had filed for bankruptcy in 1826 where the doors of the distillery were closed. In 1834 the newly founded Bullock & Co. Ltd sold the distillery to John Hart and Alexander Filshie who renamed the distillery Auchentoshan Distillery. In 1875 the distillery was renovated. In 1941 after changing ownership a number of times the distillery was subjected to serious damaged by a German air raid during WW2. The distillery was rebuilt to continue production and ran until 1984 when Morrison Bownore Ltd purchased the distillery. Bowmore immediately refurbished the distillery and in 1989 Suntory invested in Morrison Bownore Ltd eventually taking full control 2014. Suntory and Beam merged forming Beam Suntory who remain the owners of the distillery to date.
