Coleburn Distillery
Region: Highlands
District: Speyside
Coleburn Distillery was built in 1896 by John
Robertson and Son, Ltd. It is located a few miles South of
Elgin in the heart of Speyside. The distillery successfully
experimented with several liquor industry purifying effluents
that were to benefit the entire industry in later years. The
produce of Coleburn was a staple in the Andrew Usher blends
and was a part of the Johnny Walker blends during its more
productive years. It ceased operation in 1985 and is not expected
to reopen.
