Here are the lads who actually did the work on cleaning and lacquering the stills at Ardgowan. #SingleMalt #Scotch #Whisky #çopperart

When we initially lacquered the Ardgowan Distillery Company Limited stills, they displayed a beautiful salmon hue - after our first distillation run, the wash has magically darkened and developed into a lovely copper tone that is just gorgeous.

Is it AI? Is it Photoshop? Nope—just Ardgowan Distillery looking incredible at dusk. 🌅

Captured by our own Martin, this drone footage shows how our building plays with light in the most stunning way. Stay tuned for more over Easter weekend!

Stills are the beating heart of every distillery. Now that ours have been freshly lacquered, we couldn't be more proud of these hand-hammered copper beauties.

A milestone moment at Ardgowan Distillery—our first malted barley delivery has arrived! 🌾🥃
Years of planning, investment, and dedication have led to this day as we transition from construction to whisky production.

A seamless 360° #video orbit captured in a single, unedited #drone flight!

The smooth, continuous movement really highlights the impressive scale and architectural details of our project. The ☀️ did shine which helped. I did speed up the video in a few places.

I took a pre-dawn hike up Idzholm Hill overlooking Ardgowan Distillery Company Limited. A chilly -2°C morning. The sun's golden rays gradually lighted the distillery and the mist quickly cleared. Our ancestors celebrated this day waiting for the explosion of growth and a promise of a new season.

Distillery Water
The rock formations in the Inverclyde region consist primarily of sandstones with limestones and dolomites, plus some mudstone and siltstone. The borehole water is exceptionally clean and sweet, is ideal for producing single malt whisky. Here is Stevie with a video update.

The journey to build this distillery has been filled with challenges and triumphs, but seeing it now, nearly complete in the bright moonlight, makes it very worthwhile.

On our project, we're facing those inevitable challenging days where despite everyone's dedication and hard work, progress feels frustratingly slow. But this is the reality of ambitious projects. Here is @Laura Davies with a video update on our progress. #Whisky #SingleMalt #NewDistillery

LEtting off #Steam. Soon we'll be transforming water, malted barley, and yeast into liquid gold through the magic of heat, and the skill of our Distillery Manager Laura Davies. Here is Stephen Caughey with a video update.

The sun is still shining here at Ardgowan! ☀️ We're delighted to be laying down casks in our warehouse, marking another milestone in our journey.

Now, onto the sampling stage as we craft this year’s special Clydebuilt releases. 🥃✨
