More Info:
Glen Moray : Label no longer says Glenlivet.
Like its sister distillery, Glenmorangie, Glen Moray is a former brewery, having been built in 1815. It was converted to a distillery in 1897. The previous owners went into receivership in 1917 and it passed into the ownership of Macdonald & Muir in 1923.
It was rebuilt in 1958, when it was converted from two to four stills. Close by the distillery is Gallows Hill, the scene of public hangings in days gone by.
Some of the make goes into Macdonald & Muir's Highland Queen blend as well as other blends throughout the industry.
Glen Moray is situated in a hollow on the bank of the River Lossie, on the western outskirts of Elgin. River Lossie is used for supplying water to the distillery.
