Auchroisk is Gaelic for “ford across the red stream”. Next to the distilleries location can be found the Dorie’s Well. Extensive testing was done on the wells water by IDV and in 1972, after concluding that it was of exceptional quality, they founded the distillery on a nearby site. The objective of IDV was to use the Auchroisk spirit for the popular J & B Rare blended whisky, but the high quality of spirit induced IDV to release a single malt by the name of “The Singleton”. The name was abandoned in 2001 and launched as Auchroisk in the Flora & Fauna series.

We currently stock a small number of single malts from the Auchroisk distillery including the Auchroisk 10 Year Old, Auchroisk 10 Year Old 1999 NC2, Auchroisk 10 Year Old 1999 Whiskies of Scotland and the Auchroisk 20 year old 2010 release. All of these single malts are available to purchase below.
