One of the giant Speyside distilleries, Glenlivet had a humble beginning as a farm called Minmore, purchased by George Smith in 1858 who then established a distillery on the remote site. Stripping equipment from the closure of 2 other distilleries (Cairngorm, Upper Drummin), the renamed Glenlivet distillery sparks into life in 1859 and has gone from strength to strength since. The Glenlivet helped establish Speyside as a leading source of whisky and inspired others to use its name. Today, it is one of the biggest, if not the biggest in Scotland – engaged in an eternal struggle with Glenfiddich for bragging rights. Around 21 million litres are produced annually, which gives the distillery an incredible array of whiskies and a worldwide reach. Owned by Pernod Ricard, there are now 3 still rooms contained 14 pairs of stills; an incredible sight if you’re able to visit its remote location near Ballindalloch.
