In the Gorbals, on the south bank of the Clyde in Glasgow, Strathclyde was founded in 1927 by Seager Evans and ran its first spirit the next year. From 1958 to 1975 it even housed a small malt distillery, Kinclaith, inside its walls. Its grain, made with Loch Katrine water in a two-column system, goes almost entirely into blends, so single casks are a rare sight. Pernod Ricard's.
