Distillery Information

Annandale Distillery was established way back in 1836 by George Donald, an Elgin-based excise officer who named the site after the valley it sits in just 15 minutes from the English border. Using water from the Guillielands Burn for cooling and power and from Middleby Burn for the whisky, the Lowland site functioned for nearly a century, once capable of making 28,000 gallons of spirit annually and even passing through the hands of John Walker & Sons before whisky making ceased in the early 1920s. It was later a production line for the Provost porridge oats breakfast cereal brand, but before long the buildings fell into a state of disrepair. That’s how things remained until 2007 when Annandale caught the eye of a husband-and-wife/business partner team. Professor David Thomson, an expatriate Scot, was looking for a project that would anchor his life back to his native Scotland while Teresa Church was keen to find work that supported her enduring passion for restoring old buildings.
