This is an Eadie Cairns bottling of Auchentoshan for the Italian market in the early 1970s. The Italians reportedly had difficulty with the pronunciation of the distillery's name, so it was mercifully rebranded as Glentoshan when exported there. It is also believed they hoped the name would draw associations to the nation's most popular import, Glen Grant.
