Operating in Glasgow for over 50 years
ABOUT CAMLACHIE
Camlachie Cooperage is based in Glasgow’s East End and has a rich history in supporting Scotland’s finest export, Scotch Whisky during our 60 years of trading.
Coopering is a highly skilled trade that has changed very little over the years. Coopers use many of the same traditional methods and tools as they did hundreds of years ago. Repairing and rejuvenating whisky casks is essential for the continued growth of the Scotch Whisky market here in Scotland and internationally.
Each year we supply and repair over 100,000 casks which go on to be used by whisky distilleries throughout Scotland and the rest of the world.
Protecting the past, while looking to the future
To ensure this ancient skill continues to thrive for our national export, we offer an award- winning apprenticeship where we train young school leavers to become highly skilled coopers. The apprenticeship is governed and assessed by the National Cooperage Federation which is an independent body that oversees all cooperages in the UK.
