Caperdonich Distillery
Originally known as Glen Grant No. 2, a small pipe used to run overhead from the Glen Grant distillery to Caperdonich so that they could cask and recreate similar distillate to that of Glen Grant. The distillery operated like this for only four years before lying dormant until 1965 when it was purchased by Glenlivet. A law passed in the same year stating that two distilleries couldn’t operate with the same name, as a result Glenlivet renamed the distillery to Caperdonich. Sadly, the distillery ceased production in 2002 and was sold in 2010 with the buildings being demolished, making whisky from this distillery increasingly scarce.
Gordon & Macphail
Gordon & Macphail are one of the oldest whisky bottlers to exist in the world. Bottling over 350 expressions from over 70 distilleries, as well as bottling whisky for numerous large distilleries in Scotland for decades. Bottling whisky for 115 years and now proud owners of the Benromach distillery since 1993. They did nearly purchase Strathisla Distillery from Seagram’s in the 1950’s, but Seagram’s wanted £71,000, whereas Gordon & Macpahil only offered £70,000. Imagine.
