Glen Elgin Distillery

The Speyside distillery Glen Elgin was founded in 1898 by William Simpson, the former manager of Glenfarclas, and banker James Carle. Production started in 1900, but the distillery closed just a few months later. The distillery was sold to the Glen Elgin-Glenlivet Distillery Co. in 1901. J.J. Blanche & Co bought Glen Elgin in 1906 and resumed production. When J.J. Blanche died in 1929, the distillery was sold again, this time to Scottish Malt Distillers, a subsidiary of Distillers Company Limited. At that time, Glen Elgin’s whisky was mostly used in White Horse’s blended Scotch. Today it is also regularly available as a smooth and mellow Speyside malt. The distillery was rebuilt and expanded in 1964, adding four new stills to the original two. Did you know that Glen Elgin was one of the last new distilleries established during the whisky boom of the 1890s? The distillery’s architect, Charles Doig, predicted that Glen Elgin would be the last distillery built in Speyside for fifty years. And he was right: the next distillery, Tormore, wouldn’t be established for another sixty years.
