Craigellachie Distillery 26th Aug 2019

The stillman at Craigellachie Whisky Distillery has the huge windows fully open in the warm late summer evening.

 

Craigellachie’s distillery was built in 1890. Designed by Charles Doig, it was built with all modern conveniences with the express intention of making a lighter fruitier character than the older distilleries.

 

Its owners were Sir Peter Mackie (of White Horse) and Alexander Edward. He also owned a local brickworks, built new villas in the growing village and, in 1896, constructed a large hotel. He would go on to build Aultmore, Dallas Dhu and Benromach.
