Macduff Whisky Distillery History


Situated to the east of Banff on the east bank of the River Deveron, about half a mile from the Moray Firth. The distillery was built in 1962 by a consortium of businessmen which included George Crawford, Morty Dykes and Brodie Hepburn

Extended from two to three stills in 1966 and to four in 1968.

Acquired by William Lawson in 1972, which in turn became part of the General Beverage Corporation, the Luxembourg Company that manages Martini & Rossi's global interests now a subsidiary of Bacardi Limited,

Macduff is one of the few distilleries to give its single malt a different name from its own. The malt takes its name from the nearby River Deveron from which it drawn the water used for cooling in the production process. The Gelly Burn is the distilling water source used by the distillery

Independent bottlers do market the whisky, including miniatures, under the name of Macduff
