About the distillery
The Glenlochy Distillery started producing whisky in 1901 but fell silent in 1919 reopening in 1924 but closing again after only 2 years. The distillery was acquired in 1937 by Thomas Rankin but does not resume production. 1937 saw the distillery change hands again, this time being acquired by Train and McIntyre who transferred it to their subsidiary Associated Scottish Distillers the next year. Train and McIntyre are sold to Distillers Company Ltd (DCL) in 1954 who close the distillery in 1968. Resuming production briefly, alas with the loss of its rail connection Glenlochy closed its doors for for good on May 31, 1983.
