Slogan: “The single malt that started it all” Region (District): Speyside (Livet) Neighbors: Allt-á-Bhainne, Braeval, Tormore, Tomintoul, Tamnavulin Established: 1824 - Founder: In 1817, George ‘2-Guns’ Smith (1792-1871) inherited Upper Drummin farm which his father, Andrew, began operating in 1774. George was the first (1824) to legalize (license) an existent distillery under The Whisky Act of 1823. As the illicit distillers regarded George as a turncoat, they made no secret of their intention to do him great bodily harm and attempted to do so on several occasions. For the purpose of ensuring the survival of his rental income, the Laird of Aberlour gave him 2 pistols which he mastered and worn everywhere. (That’s an accurate history. Moonshiners burnt down many licensed distilleries in those days and, even after that era, a common business tactic was to torch your competitor’s distillery after he locked up for the night. For example, Royal Lochnagar Distillery was thrice burnt down 'in suspicious circumstances' prior to relocating across the river to its current location… right next to the royal residence at Balmoral Castle (an exceedingly well-protected area).

The distillery's roots, however, date back much further. According to Misako Udo, Littlemill was converted from a 1750's brewery building and, there is speculation whisky was distilled upon this site as far back as the fourteenth century. History: Littlemill’s somewhat chequered history is a little surprising given its location near the Bowling Railway Station, the Forth & Clyde Canal which merges into the navigable river Clyde, and nearest to the city of Glasgow. One would think that such good transport links and strategic location would have given it a commercial edge. Subsequent owners included, but may not be limited to, Matthew Clark & Co (1817), Jane Macgregor (1824), Hector Henderson (1840), William Hay (1875), Duncan Thomas (1931), Barton Distilling (1971), Amalgamated Distilled Products (1982), the Argyll Group (1984), Gibson International (1989), Loch Lomond (1994). Status: License Surrendered/Non-Producing (Demolished) Date of first Distillation: 1772 - Date of last Distillation: 1992 Region (District): Lowland (Western) Location: Alfred Barnard (visited Littlemill in the 1880‘s): “This Distillery is planted at the base of the Kilpatrick Hills, on the banks of the Clyde, and is close by Bowling Railway Station. It is twelve miles from Glasgow, on the North British Railway, and a quarter of a mile from the Forth and Clyde Canal. The locality abounds in charming landscapes not unlike Richmond on the River Thames. The quiet beauty of the hill slopes and wooded plantations, the hedges covered with summer roses, and the numerous mountain rills, has made this place the favorite resort of artists, whilst at the front flows the great river, with its nautical stir, and the Bowling Bay, with its wharves and shipping, giving lire to the scene.” Neighbors: Loch Lomond and Glengoyne Cask: Sherry HH (refill) Cask #8 Water Source: Its water comes from Kilpatrick Springs located in a shady glen away up in the Kilpatrick Hills Distilled: November 7, 1988 and is brought down to a reservoir close by. Bottled: Not stated Grain Source: Local barley; likely from the Laich of Moray and the Black Isle. Age: 1988 Vintage (25-year) Peat Source: The peat used in drying is brought from Stornoway (Isle of Lewis) and Perthshire (inland central Scotland) Bottler: Exclusive Malts (owned Heat Source: Steam from an oil-fired central boiler; additional power was obtained by a water wheel which by Creative Whisky Co.) for K&L was likely discontinued prior to its closure. NOTES by K&L (CA Retailer): Malt Spec (Phenols): Standard was 0-ppm (Unpeated) The hamlet of Bowling, SCO where Grain Mill: Unknown, but surely a twin-roller Porteus or Boby mill. Littlemill once operated, has built Mashtun: Charged with 7.62-tons of milled barley (350 bushels) affordable housing on its ghostly Washbacks: 8 Douglas fir WBs with a capacity of 19,000L each (5,000 USG) grounds. Some of ruins remain, but Yeast: Apparently, it used a proprietary strain of liquid distiller’s yeast there's nothing left of its significance Yeast Tanks: 2 brewing vats at 7,500L each - Fermentation: Unknown other than a street sign that reads Stills: 3 copper pot stills @ 15,150L (Wash), 5,700L (Low Wines) and ca. 3,500L (Spirit) "Littlemill Place." Onto our 25-year- old Littlemill malt cask. The drinker Condensers: 3 Worm tubs who appreciates the pure malt flavors Spirit Vat: Its spirits receiver had a capacity of 13,000L on the palate, the little hint of vanilla Capacity: Zero (Closed/dismantled; partially demo) - Output: Zero (Closed/dismantled; partially demo) on the back palate, and the burst of OBs: 8, 12 and 17-year-old richness that tickles its lingering finish, Casks: The remaining casks are prominently ex-bourbon, refill and sherry casks.

  • Ronnie's Cabs
    transport guide FOREWORD The Moray Forum is a constituted voluntary organisation that was established to provide a direct link between the Area Forums and the Moray Community Planning Partnership. The Forum is made up of two representatives of each of the Area Forums and meets on a regular basis. Further information about The Moray Forum is available on: www.yourmoray.org.uk Area Forums are recognised by the Moray Community Planning Partnership as an important means of engaging local people in the Community Planning process. In rural areas - such as Moray - transport is a major consideration, so in September 2011 the Moray Forum held its first transport seminar to look at the issues and concerns that affect our local communities in respect of access to transport. Two actions that came from that event was the establishment of a Passenger Forum and a Transport Providers Network. This work was taken forward by the Moray Forum Transport Working Group made up of representatives of the Area Forums, Moray Council, NHS Grampian, tsiMORAY, and community transport schemes. In September 2013 the Working Group repeated the seminar to see how much progress had been made on the actions and issues identified in 2011. As a direct result of the work of the Group this Directory has been produced in order to address an on-going concern that has been expressed of the lack of information on what transport is available in Moray, the criteria for accessing certain transport services, and where to go for further advice. The Moray Forum Transport Working Group would like to acknowledge the help of all the people who provided information for this Directory, and thereby made a contribution towards the integration of public, private and community transport services within Moray.

  • The Orkney Hotel Whisky Menu
    THE ORKNEY HOTEL WHISKY MENU ORKNEY MALTS Orkney’s rugged and windswept character has shaped some of Scotland’s most distinct and warming malt whiskies. Highland Park 12yr (40%) From Scotland’s northernmost distillery comes a full flavoured Malt. With a nose of malt, sherry and peat, a palate of smoke, heather and other earthy elements. Highland Park 15yr (43%) Highland Park 15 has a remarkable complex nose with notes of camphor, peat and citrus fruits and flowers. The drying sensation on the finish leaves a rich smoky feeling and the immediate desire to refill your glass. Highland Park 18yr (43%) Burnished gold in colour with a rich, mature oak and aromatic smoke aroma. It has a rich, full flavour, honey and peat taste and a soft, round and long finish. Highland Park 21yr (47.5%) Drawing its incredible character from predominantly American oak casks which have been seasoned with sherry, this 21 year old is a truly dynamic whisky with an intensely fruity and spicy centre, surrounded by complex layers of candied orange peel, dark chocolate and rich, slightly drier smoke. A malt that rewards patience and delivers experience like no other. Highland Park 25yr (50.7%) With its golden dark red colour and very rich, mature oak, chocolate fudge aroma, this whisky is universally acclaimed, by the critics as one of the great single malts. It has a full, rich burst of flavours, soft honey and nutty toffee and a long and surprisingly sweet finish for its age. Highland Park 30yr (48.1%) 30 years ago after deciding to lay down the casks that would go on to become the heart of this exceptional whisky and over these 3 decades, the whisky maturing inside them has developed an outstanding balance, with a seductive sweetness and extremely delicate smoke.

I am happy to introduce a wee question and answers session with Stuart which helps to enhance our perspective on what's behind the amber-nectar which we all enjoy so much - could you introduce yourself to the whisky-fans ! • The story really starts when I left University back in 1979 (BSc in Chemical Engineering from Heriot-Watt University in Edinburgh – seems like a lifetime ago (and is) and started working with a company in Fife who, amongst other things manufactured by- products plants for the whisky industry.

SOLD BY THE AGENTS FOR THE COURANT; AND BY ALL BOOKSELLERS. : ELGIN PRINTED AT THE COURANT OFFICE, PREFACE, Thu ''Morayshire Directory" is issued in the hope that it will be found satisfactorily comprehensive and reliably accurate, The greatest possible care has been taken in verifying every particular contained in it ; but, where names and details are so numerous, absolute accuracy is almost impossible. A few changes have taken place since the first sheets were printed, but, so far as is known, they are unimportant, It is believed the Directory now issued may be fully depended upon as a Book of Reference, and a Guide for the County of Moray and the Upper District of Banffshire, Giving names and information for each town arid parish so fully, which has never before been attempted in a Directory for any County in the JTorth of Scotland, has enlarged the present work to a size far beyond anticipation, and has involved much expense, labour, and loss of time. It is hoped, however, that the completeness and accuracy of the Book, on which its value depends, will explain and atone for a little delay in its appearance. It has become so large that it could not be sold at the figure first mentioned without loss of money to a large extent, The price has therefore been fixed at Two and Sixpence, in order, if possible, to cover outlays, Digitized by the Internet Archive in 2010 with funding from National Library of Scotland http://www.archive.org/details/blacksmorayshire1863dire INDEX.
