Glenesk Distillery

Glenesk was founded in 1897 as the Highland Esk Distillery by wine and spirit merchant James Isles. Not long after, he sold it to his business partner Septimus Parsonage, who only kept it for two years. The new owner was J.F. Caille Heddle, who renamed the distillery North Esk. The distillery closed during the First World War, and when it reopened it was solely as a maltings. Associated Scottish Distilleries acquired the distillery in 1938 and restarted production. They transformed it into a grain distillery and gave it the name Montrose. The distillery was silent during the Second World War. It became part of Distillers Company Limited in 1953. In 1964, they changed it back to a malt distillery and renamed it to Hillside. A large drum maltings was built adjacent to the distillery in 1968. In 1980, the distillery got yet another name: Glenesk. Glenesk closed in 1985, and the distillery building was demolished in 1996. The maltings are still in use today. Not many Glenesk single malt bottlings were produced, but it was released as part of Diageo’s Rare Malts series.
