Glenglassaugh Distillery is an iconic single malt Scotch whisky
distillery located just beyond the boundary of the Speyside region in the
north-east of Scotland, close to the small town of Portsoy and picturesquely
sited high above the dramatic Sandend Bay. Local barley and good supplies
of pure water ensure that whisky of the highest quality is made here.
Glenglassaugh was founded in 1875 by a local entrepreneur and his two
nephews. In 1892 the distillery was sold to the Highland Distilleries
Company who owned and operated it for many years.
In 1960 the distillery was rebuilt and enlarged with the aim of producing a
refined and delicate spirit which subsequently proved capable of long aging. In
1986, following an economic downturn in the industry, Glenglassaugh was
mothballed and remained silent awaiting its fate.
In 2008 the distillery's fortunes were revived as it was purchased by a new
independent group of investors and following a refurbishment it was reopened later
that year.
The distillery is now fully operational and visitors are welcome although
there is not yet a visitor centre. Award-winning aged whiskies and younger
spirit drinks are available to purchase from the distillery,
on-line
or from specialist retailers in the UK and abroad.
Alternatively it is possible to purchase your own cask of new spirit and
leave it to mature into single malt Scotch whisky..
