(CAM-er-on-bridge) Cameronbridge was founded in Fife in 1824 by John Haig and is widely regarded as the oldest surviving grain distillery in Scotland. Its place in whisky history is especially important because the Haig family embraced early continuous distillation there, helping establish the large-scale grain whisky production that would become central to modern Scotch blending. Cameronbridge later became one of the founding distilleries behind Distillers Company Limited in 1877, and today it sits within Diageo.
