Imperial (silent)
(Imperial)
Built in 1897 during Queen Victoria’s diamond jubilee year just as the Victorian whisky boom was coming to an end. Rather unusually built from Aberdeen red brick and iron instead of the more traditional stone and created to serve as a second distillery to nearby Dailuaine but was closed until 1919 after just one season of production. A much troubled history of closures and ownership continued through the decades until finally being demolished in 2013 and replaced by the £25m state-of-the-art Dalmunach distillery by owners Pernod Ricard for malt for the portfolio of best selling blends such as Chivas Regal and Ballantines.
