About the distillery
The Tamnavulin distillery is a producer of single malt Scotch whisky that was founded in 1966. The Tamnavulin-Glenlivet Distillery Co. Ltd. built the Tamnavulin distillery in order to satisfy the growing demand from whisky blenders such as Whyte & Mackay, Crawfords, and Mackinlay's. In 1993, Whyte & Mackay became the owners of Tamnavulin when the company purchased Invergordon Distillers. The purchase price of £382 million also included the distilleries Bruichladdich, Isle of Jura, and Tullibardine. The Tamnavulin distillery was closed in May 1995. The distillery began operating once again in July 2007 after a major refurbishment with new automation and process control which was installed by Canongate Technology. With its nine washbacks and six stills, Tamnavulin is sufficiently equipped with modern distilling technology to produce up to four and a half million litres of alcohol per year. The distillation water supply comes from natural underground springs. The Distillery does not currently have a visitor centre and is closed to the public
