SPEYSIDE DISTILLERY Drumguish 40% abv 700ml

£29.95

SPEYSIDE DISTILLERY Drumguish Drumguish was the first single malt expression from Speyside distillery near Kingussie, built over the course of 25 years by Glasgow-based whisky blender and broker George Christie. Speyside distillery began distilling in 1990, and while its single malt spirit was also eventually bottled as Glentromie and Spey whisky in later years, its first release was named Drumguish after the surrounding area and a lost distillery that sat across the way in the late 19th century. Drumguish was first listed in Wallace Milroy’s Malt Whisky Almanac in 1995, which noted the whisky as a ‘floral, fruity, light malt with a sweet, lingering finish’. This relatively positive description was not shared by many other aficionados, and Drumguish never gained any serious traction in the retail trade.

Overview

SPEYSIDE DISTILLERY Drumguish

The idea of a single malt distillery came to industry legend George Christie in the 1950s. Prior to the construction of Speyside he had built the North of Scotland grain plant in Clackmannan, (some of the remaining casks are being eked out under the Scott’s Selection label owned by George’s son Ricky). It would take 30 years for his Speyside dream to become reality.

In 2013 the distillery and the firm was bought by Harvey’s of Edinburgh with Taiwanese backing.

In April 2025 the distillery closed its doors.  We hear that there are plans in place for a new distillery to be built but have no dates yet.
