About the distillery
Stronachie distillery was built in the 1890s by Victorian entrepreneurs Alexander & MacDonald, rising out of the wilderness in the Ochil Mountains in Perthshire. Despite its remote location and the resulting challenges, it survived for nearly 30 years before sadly closing its doors in 1928. The new make spirit is matured in ex-bourbon casks before bottling in small batches as 10 year old Stronachie Single Malt. Stronachie is pronounced Stron-a-key. In Gaelic, the name means ‘prominent nose’ or ‘headland in the valley’.
