On the site where a leprosy hospital stood in the 12th century, and later a convent, one of the Lowlands most significant distilleries was established in the late 18th century. Situated directly on the Union Canal, St. Magdalene combined local craftsmanship with the pioneering spirit of the 19th and 20th centuries.

Today, St. Magdalene Single Malt Scotch Whisky ranks among the very finest examples of the Scottish art of distilling. In the wake of the major industry crisis, the distillery closed its doors in 1983. Today, the historic buildings have been converted into flats - yet in this exquisite 1981 18 Years St. Magdalene Lowland Single Malt, the soul of this mystical distillery lives untouched.
