For the first time in history, whisky is being (legally) produced in Ardnamurchan. The distillery grew out of Adelphi Distillery; a progressive artisan company first established in 1826 and known to whisky enthusiasts and connoisseurs across the world as Scotland’s most acclaimed bottler of rare, single casks of malt whisky. We’re very proud that after more than 100 years, we’ve returned to our distilling roots.
The Ardnamurchan Distillery opened in July 2014, to begin producing what will eventually mature into world-class single malts. We produce two signature styles of spirit, one peated and one unpeated, which will mature quietly in our warehouse in American and Spanish oak casks until they reach the peak of perfection.
Green Production
Whisky is a ‘natural’ product and this is reflected in the way we operate, using green, sustainable processes. The distillery is powered by local renewables, recycling the by-product of the distilling process as animal feed and fertiliser to be used on the peninsula, reducing our overall environmental footprint.
Tours and Tasting
We’re delighted to share the secrets of distilling with our visitors and run exclusive, informative and friendly tours year-round, for everyone from whisky newcomers to the seasoned expert.
