Buy Lowland Whisky in Singapore — The Triple-Distilled Tradition Reborn
Lowland whisky is one of Scotland's five formally protected Scotch whisky regions under the 2009 Scotch Whisky Regulations — covering everything south of the Highland Boundary Fault (the geological line running from Helensburgh on the west coast to Stonehaven on the east coast). The Lowlands' traditional house style is light, soft, delicate, smooth, and historically unpeated — often referred to as "Ladies' Whisky" for its accessibility and gentleness. The style was shaped by three key factors: triple distillation (the old Lowland tradition that strips out heavier compounds), the absence of peat (Lowland distilleries historically used coal and coke as fuel rather than peat), and softer water sources than the granite-fed Highlands.
The Liquid Collection's Lowland range is anchored on Auchentoshan — the only Scottish distillery to triple-distill every drop of its whisky, an old Lowland tradition. Founded in 1823 by John Bulloch at Dalmuir in Clydebank, on the north-western edge of Glasgow overlooking the River Clyde, Auchentoshan (pronounced "ock-en-tosh-an" — Gaelic for "corner of the field") is the most distinctive surviving heritage Lowland distillery. Owned by Suntory Global Spirits since 1994. Master Blender Rachel Barrie oversees the modern range. Five Auchentoshan expressions at TLC: the 12 Year Old core ($73 SGD on sale, was $88), Three Wood (10+ years in American Bourbon casks plus 1 year Oloroso plus 1 year Pedro Ximénez finish, $93 from $166), 18 Year Old Sherry Cask ($200), 21 Year Old ($280 from $390), and the LDMW Auchentoshan 13 Year Old 2007 Collective 5.0 ($255 from $390).

The Lowland House Style vs Other Scotch Regions
Lowland whisky's traditional character is among the most distinctive of all Scotch regions — distinguished from Highland, Speyside, Islay, and Campbeltown by its lightness, softness, and traditional triple distillation.
| Region | Typical Distillation | Peat Level | House Style |
|---|---|---|---|
| Lowland | Often triple-distilled (Auchentoshan) | Typically 0 ppm (unpeated) | Light, soft, delicate, smooth — grass, cereal, citrus, vanilla |
| Highland | Double-distilled standard | 0–25 ppm (variable) | Highly diverse — coastal sweet to fruity to robust |
| Speyside | Double-distilled standard | Typically 0 ppm | Elegant, complex, often sherry-cask influenced |
| Islay | Double-distilled standard | 20–55+ ppm | Heavily peated, medicinal, maritime, smoky |
| Campbeltown | Mixed — Springbank triple-distills some expressions | 0–20 ppm (variable) | Coastal, salty, slightly funky, idiosyncratic |
Triple Distillation — The Old Lowland Tradition
Triple distillation is the practice of distilling new-make spirit three times rather than the standard double distillation common to most Scotch whisky production. The process uses three pot stills — a wash still, an intermediate still, and a spirit still — rather than the standard two. Triple distillation strips out heavier fusel oils and produces an exceptionally pure, light, smooth spirit at higher ABV (around 81%) than double distillation (around 70%).
Auchentoshan is the only Scottish distillery to triple-distill every drop. The tradition was historically more widespread across the Lowlands but largely fell out of use as double-distillation became the Scotch industry standard. Triple distillation remains the norm in Irish whiskey production, which shares the technique with Lowland Scotch as a regional signature. Rosebank — historically considered the third "great" Lowland triple-distilling distillery alongside Auchentoshan and the closed St. Magdalene — is currently being revived after a long closure.
The Auchentoshan Vertical — 12 Year Old to 21 Year Old
The Liquid Collection's Auchentoshan range covers 5 expressions across every age and cask tier — from the accessible 12 Year Old through to the prestige 21 Year Old. Every Auchentoshan is triple-distilled — the spirit's exceptional lightness lets it absorb cask character with particular sensitivity, which is why Auchentoshan's range emphasises distinctive cask programs (Three Wood, Sherry Cask).
The Lowland Renaissance — New Distilleries
The Lowlands is currently experiencing a major distilling renaissance after decades of being the smallest Scotch region by distillery count. New Lowland distilleries that have opened or are in development since the mid-2010s:
| Distillery | Location | Founded / Status |
|---|---|---|
| Daftmill | Fife | 2005 — farming family, estate-bottled philosophy |
| Kingsbarns | Fife | 2014 — wedding venue + distillery hybrid |
| Eden Mill | Fife | 2014 — also produces gin |
| Annandale | Dumfriesshire | 2014 — Robert Burns connection |
| Bladnoch | Wigtownshire | Reopened 2015 — Scotland's southernmost distillery |
| Glasgow Distillery | Glasgow | 2014 — first new Glasgow distillery in over 100 years |
| Lochlea | Ayrshire | 2017 — farm distillery |
| Lindores Abbey | Fife | 2017 — built on site of medieval Lindores Abbey (1494 whisky reference) |
| Holyrood Distillery | Edinburgh | 2019 — Edinburgh city centre |
| Bonnington Distillery | Edinburgh | 2019 — Leith district |
| Port of Leith Distillery | Edinburgh (Leith) | Opened 2024 — vertical distillery building |
| Rosebank | Falkirk | Reopened (triple-distilled historic Lowland distillery revival) |
Many of these new distilleries are reinterpreting Lowland whisky for contemporary palates — some maintaining the traditional triple-distillation and light unpeated style (Rosebank reopening), others using peat to varying degrees (Daftmill, Annandale), and still others exploring entirely new directions outside the traditional house style. The Lowlands is genuinely the most exciting region in Scotch whisky for new releases in the 2020s.
Frequently Asked Questions — Lowland Whisky Singapore
What is Lowland whisky?
Lowland whisky is Scotch whisky produced in the Lowlands region of Scotland — one of the five formally protected Scotch whisky regions under the 2009 Scotch Whisky Regulations. The Lowlands region is defined as everything south of the Highland Boundary Fault — the geological line running from Helensburgh on the west coast to Stonehaven on the east coast. The region's traditional house style is light, soft, delicate, often triple-distilled, and historically unpeated — distinguished by mild, soft, often floral notes of grass, cereals, citrus fruits, and subtle hints of vanilla. The region is currently experiencing a renaissance, with multiple new distilleries opening in Glasgow, Edinburgh, and the Lowland countryside since the mid-2010s.
What are Scotland's five whisky regions?
The five formally protected Scotch whisky regions under the 2009 Scotch Whisky Regulations are: (1) Highland — the largest by area, covering most of Scotland north of the Highland Boundary Fault; (2) Speyside — formally separate from Highland since 2009 and home to over 60 distilleries (more than any other region); (3) Islay — the small island west of the mainland, famous for heavily peated whisky; (4) Lowland — the smaller southern region home to lighter, often triple-distilled styles; (5) Campbeltown — the smallest active region with only three operating distilleries (Springbank, Glen Scotia, Glengyle). The Liquid Collection stocks across all five regions.
Who is Auchentoshan?
Auchentoshan is one of the most distinctive Lowland distilleries — founded in 1823 by John Bulloch at Dalmuir in Clydebank, on the north-western edge of Glasgow overlooking the River Clyde. Auchentoshan (pronounced "ock-en-tosh-an" — Gaelic for "corner of the field") is the only Scottish distillery to triple-distill every drop of its whisky, an old Lowland tradition that produces a uniquely light, smooth, fruity spirit reaching 81% ABV before reduction. Owned by Suntory Global Spirits since 1994 (acquired through Beam Suntory's purchase of Morrison Bowmore). Master Blender Rachel Barrie oversees the range. The Liquid Collection stocks 5 Auchentoshan expressions: the 12 Year Old core release, Three Wood (American Bourbon plus Oloroso plus Pedro Ximénez triple cask matured), 18 Year Old Sherry Cask, 21 Year Old, and the LDMW Auchentoshan 13 Year Old 2007 Collective 5.0.
What is triple distillation?
Triple distillation is the practice of distilling new-make spirit three times rather than the standard double distillation common to most Scotch whisky production. The process uses three pot stills (wash still, intermediate still, spirit still) rather than the standard two. The extra distillation strips out heavier fusel oils and produces an exceptionally pure, light, smooth spirit at a higher ABV — Auchentoshan's spirit reaches approximately 81% ABV before reduction, significantly higher than typical double-distilled Scotch (around 70% ABV). The result is a softer, lighter house style historically associated with Lowland whisky and Irish whiskey. Auchentoshan is currently the only Scottish distillery to triple-distill every drop of its whisky.
What is Auchentoshan Three Wood?
Auchentoshan Three Wood is one of Auchentoshan's most celebrated expressions — a triple-cask-matured whisky that begins with extended American Bourbon cask maturation (typically 10 years), followed by one year of finishing in Oloroso sherry casks, and a final year of finishing in Pedro Ximénez sherry casks. The combination of Auchentoshan's triple-distilled spirit with three distinct cask influences produces a complex, rich expression with significant dried fruit, raisin, dark chocolate, and oloroso depth alongside the distillery's signature soft Lowland character. The Liquid Collection stocks Three Wood at $93 SGD (down from $166).
What is the historical Lowland whisky style?
The traditional Lowland whisky style is light, soft, delicate, smooth, and typically unpeated — historically often referred to as "Ladies' Whisky" or "breakfast Scotch" for its accessibility and gentleness. The style was shaped by three key factors: triple distillation (the old Lowland tradition that strips out heavier compounds and produces a lighter spirit), the absence of peat (Lowland distilleries historically relied on coal and coke rather than peat as a fuel, given the region's mining industry), and softer water (Lowland water sources tend to be less mineral-driven than Highland sources). The result is a whisky house style closer to Irish whiskey than to Highland or Islay malt — gentle grass, cereal, citrus, light vanilla, and a clean finish.
What new Lowland distilleries are opening?
The Lowlands is currently experiencing a major distilling renaissance. New Lowland distilleries operating or recently opened include: Daftmill (Fife, 2005), Kingsbarns (Fife, 2014), Bladnoch (Wigtownshire — reopened 2015, Scotland's southernmost distillery), Annandale (Dumfriesshire, 2014), Eden Mill (Fife, 2014), Glasgow Distillery (Glasgow, 2014 — first new Glasgow distillery in over 100 years), Holyrood Distillery (Edinburgh, 2019), Lochlea (Ayrshire, 2017), Lindores Abbey (Fife, 2017 — built on the site of medieval Lindores Abbey, mentioned in the earliest written record of Scotch whisky from 1494), Bonnington Distillery (Edinburgh, 2019), and Port of Leith (Edinburgh, opened 2024). These distilleries are reinterpreting Lowland whisky for a contemporary audience.
What is Auchentoshan 21 Year Old?
The Auchentoshan 21 Year Old is the senior official age statement in Auchentoshan's core range — 21 years of triple-distilled maturation in a combination of ex-Bourbon and refill sherry casks. The combination of triple-distillation's exceptional light spirit with two decades of maturation produces an exceptionally refined, soft, complex single malt — concentrated stone fruit, gentle oak vanilla, and the Lowland signature of integrated cereal and floral notes. The Liquid Collection stocks Auchentoshan 21 Year Old at $280 SGD (down from $390).
What is Mister Peat?
Mister Peat is a heavily peated Single Malt Scotch independently bottled by Fox Fitzgerald Group — bottled at 46% ABV, non-chill-filtered, and produced without added colouring. The source distillery is not officially disclosed (a common convention for independent bottlings). The brand's tasting profile leans into peat smoke as the central character — vegetal, saline, and woody peat alongside lemony and iodised notes, with a sweet toasted barley finish. The Liquid Collection stocks Mr Peat Single Malt Scotch Whisky at $100 SGD (down from $106). Note: as a heavily peated single malt, its character is closer to Islay than to the traditional Lowland house style.
Who is Rachel Barrie?
Rachel Barrie is Auchentoshan's Master Blender — one of Scotch whisky's most respected modern master blenders, with over 30 years of industry experience. Barrie has worked across multiple distilleries during her career (Glenmorangie, Ardbeg, GlenDronach, BenRiach, and others before her current Suntory Global Spirits role). She was inducted into the Whisky Hall of Fame in 2019. Barrie's blending philosophy emphasises balance and integration — well-suited to Auchentoshan's delicate triple-distilled spirit, which requires careful cask selection to develop complexity without overwhelming the light underlying character.
Is Auchentoshan peated?
No — Auchentoshan uses entirely unpeated malted barley, true to the traditional Lowland house style. The distillery's signature character is shaped by triple distillation (rather than peating) — producing a clean, smooth, light spirit that's then refined through cask maturation. Auchentoshan's unpeated, triple-distilled house style distinguishes it from both Highland malts (typically double-distilled, sometimes lightly peated) and Islay malts (typically heavily peated). Auchentoshan is one of the most accessible Scotch single malts for drinkers who prefer to avoid peat smoke.
