Crabbie
Crabbie traces its roots to Edinburgh in 1801, when Miller Crabbie established a merchant business that later passed to his son, John Crabbie. Under John Crabbie, the company expanded in Leith, using the port’s trading links to build a whisky blending and spirits business that also became well known for gin, liqueurs and, later, Green Ginger Wine. The company also owned Haddington Distillery in East Lothian, where it produced grain whisky from 1852 until the mid-1860s.
