Like Ben Wyvis and Killyloch, Kinclaith was a single malt whisky produced within the confines of a larger single grain distillery, in this case the Strathclyde distillery. Kinclaith's Lowland single malt whisky was produced on pot stills at Strathclyde between 1957 and 1975.

There were never any official bottlings of Kinclaith's single malt, and only a handful of casks escaped the blending hall during its short life, so naturally it is now incredibly rare and highly desirable for collectors. This means that the prices are high and knowledge of the spirit is low.

Kinclaith was only ever intended for blending, but there have been a few bottlings of Kinclaith's single malt whisky in the past from Cadenhead's in the 1980s, Gordon & MacPhail in the 1990s and Signatory and Duncan Taylor this century.  At the time of writing in 2025 there had been just one new Kinclaith since 2010, which was a 51-year-old Kinclaith 1969 released by Duncan Taylor in 2020, so stocks may now be finished.
