Ayrshire (silent)
(AIR-shur) Ayrshire is most often used on whisky bottlings linked to Ladyburn, the short-lived Lowland malt distillery built by William Grant & Sons inside the Girvan grain whisky complex in South Ayrshire. Girvan opened in 1963, with Ladyburn added in 1966 to produce malt whisky for Grant’s blends and reduce pressure on Glenfiddich stock as single malt demand grew.
