About the distillery
Strathisla Distillery, region Speyside, located in Keith was founded in 1786 by George Taylor and Alexander Milne. Originally the distillery was named Milltown Distillery. The pair remained owners until 1828 when it was purchased by William Longmore who formed William Longmore Ltd. In 1879 a fire caused huge destruction to the distillery which required a full rebuilt. In 1940 just after the Second World War the distillery was sold to Jay Pomeroy who was a fraudulent banker, unfortunately Jay nearly destroyed the entire reputation of the Milltown Distillery. He sold the entire stock making huge profits and left the distillery un-maintained. Chivas Brothers acquired the distillery in 1950 and re-named the distillery to Strathisla Distillery and thanks to the Chivas Brothers the distillery has re built the reputation to what is deserved, Strathisla is a key component in Chivas Whisky blends, The Distillery is the oldest continuously operational distilleries in the Scottish Highlands. Chivas Brothers are a subsidiary company of the Pernod-Ricard brand who acquired the company in 2001 after the dissolving of Seagrams who at the time held ownership of Chivas Brothers.
