About the distillery
The Speyside distillery is a Scotch whisky distillery near the hamlet of Drumguish in the Speyside region of Scotland, close to the village of Kingussie. It currently produces the SPEY single malt, BEINN DUBH Single malt and BYRON'S Hand crafted gin. The distillery was originally founded from an old Barley Mill built in the 1760s. Purchased in 1962 by George Christie it was built by hand by George Christie and a stone mason Alex Fairlie over the next 2 decades, and was finished in 1987. It took another three years until whisky production started in 1990. Two copper pot stills of traditional shape were installed. Because massive production was never one of George's objectives, they are still some of the smallest in Scotland. The Glenspey mash tun was the last fitted by Newmill engineering before they closed down. Though small the distillery can produce 600,000 litres of alcohol per annum. The distillery is the second most southern whisky distillery in Speyside and takes its water directly from the River Tromie.
