Kelvin Cooperage has been family run since it was founded in 1963 on the banks of the River Kelvin in Glasgow, Scotland. Kelvin has served the major distilleries in Scotland, Ireland and worldwide continuously since its formation. To meet the needs of our clients we constantly strive to obtain the best oak and utilize the most current machinery while remaining true to time-tested traditional cooperage techniques. Our dedication to maintaining the highest level of quality and service is evident in the care taken at every step of the coopering process. This ensures that every distillery receives a highly crafted, subtly flavored, American oak barrel at an exceptional value.
