The distillery was established by the Marquis of Stafford who, after marrying into the Sutherland family, became the first Duke of Sutherland. The distillery was initially intended to take some proportion of local whisky supply away from the smugglers. In 1896, James Ainslie \u0026amp; Heilbron, a Glasgow-based blending company, acquired the distillery and rebuilt it. Brora still retains the floor maltings and kiln that were then installed. In 1967, a build commenced on a new distillery, also named Clynelish, located just across the road from the original Clynelish. The build was completed a year later and the former Clynelish distillery was renamed Brora (pronounced ‘Broar-err’) in 1969. The name derives from the Old Norse ‘Bru’r aa’ meaning ‘the bridges river’. Brora was purchased in 1930 by Scottish Malt Distillers, who later became a subsidiary of Diageo. Closing in May of 1983, the buildings that made up the Brora distillery are now used by the new Clynelish distillery as a visitor centre and warehouse. Clynelish remains active with a large capacity of 4.2m litres per annum thanks to a seven day working week. In October 2017 Diageo said it was going to revive the closed Brora Distillery. In 2021, the very first cask of the reopened Brora was filled, to much joy and excitement.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"ConciergeUK","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47584286572682,"sku":null,"price":9499.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0050\/2395\/7103\/files\/40_70d654c9-f8bf-4b20-9e20-2833340510e9.webp?v=1768758349","url":"https:\/\/caskcartel.com\/products\/brora-1978-bottled-2013-ro-13-05-rare-old-gordon-macphail-single-malt-scotch-whisky-700ml","provider":"CaskCartel.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
