Collection Knockando - Speyside Single Malt Scotch Whisky
Built in 1898 by John Thompson, Knockando distillery sits proudly above the River Spey in the village of the same name. Derived from the Gaelic 'Cnoc-an-dhu', meaning 'little black hill', the distillery was established in 1898 during the Victorian whiskey boom, but fell into the clutches of dodgy traders and closed in 1899 after just a year of production. Soon after, W & A Gilbey took over the distillery which was a turning point for the distillery and for all whiskey lovers.
