문을 닫은 스카치 위스키 증류소

                 문을 닫은 증류소를 Silent Still (침묵의 증류기) 또는 Mothballed Distillery (퇴역 증류소)라고 합니다.

                 특히, 1980년대 초 위스키 소비의 급감으로 인해 비교적 규모가 작은 증류소들 중에서 많은 증류소들이
                 위기를 극복하지 못하고 1983년 ~ 1985년 사이에 문을 닫았습니다.

                 증류소에 남아 있던 위스키들은 블렌디드 위스키 메이커와 독립병입자 (Independent Bottler)들에게 판매
                 되었으며, 그 중에서 맛과 향이 뛰어난 일부 위스키들은 2년~3년 사이에 가격이 10배 이상 오르기도 하였
                 습니다.

                 외국의 위스키 수집가들에게는 이런 Silent Still의 위스키들이 투자의 대상으로 되어 인기를 누리고 있기도
                 하며, 아직도 일부 위스키들은 독립병입자 상표로 출시되고 있지만, 이들도 몇년 후에는 자취를 감추리라고
                 생각합니다.

                 문을 닫은 증류소들 중에서 증류소 건물과 설비가 모두 철거된 곳도 있으며, 아직 건물과 시설이 남아있는
                 증류소 중에는 언젠가는 다시 가동 할 희망을 간직한 곳도 있습니다.

The distillery was built by James Simpson Jr. in 1863 to replace a distillery of the same name from 1824.  Banff practiced triple distillation before converting to the double distillation method. Banff had a rich and unique history, the distillery was plagued fires, and was damaged by a severe blaze in 1877.  During World War 2 an enemy plane bombed the site, destroying warehouse number 12. The Banffshire Journal reported that thousands of gallons of whisky were lost and it is said that Boyndie burn ran with so much whisky that farm animals became intoxicated. In 1933 the distillery came under the ownership of SMD and was closed and demolished in 1983. Banff can still be readily had through independent bottlings.

한 자료에 따르면, 이 증류소는 해발 1,100미터에 위치하여
스코틀랜드에서 가장 높은 곳에 위치한 Dalwhinnie 증류소
보다 높은 곳에 위치하고 있다고 주장.

Braeval is one of the three distilleries in the glen of the Livet, and was once known as Braes of Glenlivet until its name was changed in 1995. It has no maltings on site but sports an artificial pagoda roof that helps the distillery  blend into its local surroundings. The distillery is unusual in that it has no warehouse or cask filling facilities on site, the spirit is shipped to a warehouse in Keith. one source claims that Braeval is 1,100 feet above sea level, which if true would make it higher than Dalwhinnie, who normally claims the title of highest distillery in Scotland.

Brora was originally built in 1819 by the Duke of Sutherland. The distillery was known as Clynelish until the present Clynelish distillery was built next door in 1967. The distillery was renamed Brora (Clynelish A for a time) until sadly the distillery closed in 1983. The stills remain at the distillery so hopefully the distillery will one day reopen. Brora was unique in that it was a heavily peated malt, more so than virtually any other Scottish mainland whisky. Brora is nothing like its neighbor Chynelish in the appearance of the distillery or the whisky it once produced. Brora should become very popular with collectors so it may be wise to obtain a bottle now.

Caperdonich distillery was originally built in 1897 as Glen Grant No.2 to serve as a back up to the mighty Glen Grant Distillery. However following the Pattison's crash the distillery soon closed as the demand for whisky disappeared. In 1965 the distillery reopened as Caperdonich and was later purchased by Seagrams in 1977. Caperdonich and Glen Grant share the same water source but the whiskies are not similar. Caperdonich is lighter and tends to be smokier then Glen Grant.

Convalmore was established 1894 and rebuilt in 1910 due to a fire. A continuous column still was installed at this point, with the intention of using this still for producing malt whisky. This turned out to be a failure and the still was not used after the First World War. Modernised in 1965, the distillery operated until its closure 20 years later. In 1992 William Grant & Sons, who own the neighboring Glenfiddich and Balvenie distilleries, bought Convalmore to use as warehousing for their maturing whisky stocks.

Glencraig isn’t an actual distillery but a whisky that was produced at Glenburgie distillery between 1958 and 1981. Existing bottlings may become quite valuable since the stills the spirit was made in no longer exist. Glencraig was named after Willie Craig the Ballantines director of Highland Malt Distilleries, making him one of very few people to have a single malt whisky named after them.

The distillery was converted back to a distillery in 1873 and had two stills. The distillery is situated near Peterhead where the river Ugie meets the sea. It was sold to a consortium from the oil industry but unfortunately their ambitions were never fulfilled and the distillery closed in 1983. It has since been demolished, and the auction prices reflect its scarcity.

Captain Robert Barclay, who was the first man to walk 1000 miles in 1000 hours, built Glenury Royal in Stonehaven, a little South of Aberdeen. The first spirit flowed from the distillery on January 5th 1833. Barclay was the local Member of Parliament and it was through his friend ôMr. Windsorö that the distillery was granted the right to use the Royal suffix by King George IV. The distillery was purchased by DCL in 1956 and largely rebuilt between 1965 and 1966 with the building of a new mill room, mash house and tun room, with the number of stills also doubled from two to four. It was mothballed however in 1985 and was then subsequently sold for a housing development. A 12 year old bottled by J Gillon & Co has performed well at auction.

This was recently dismantled and the boys from Bruichladdich removed alot of the equipment, thereby saving it from scrap. In 1959 Inverleven was fitted with a third still: the first Lomond still which was known as Lomond and was heavier in character. The malt side of the operation ceased production in 1991.

Kinclaith was one of Glasgow's distilleries. Established as recently as 1957, it was dismantled in the 1970's. The distillery's malt went mainly into blends, although some was bottled as a single by Cadenheads and Gordon & MacPhail in the 1980's and '90's (Signatory may soon join that short list). It is very rare whisky and commands very high prices so if you find a bottle tucked away somewhere it's time to celebrate: miniatures go for over £100 at auction!
 
                        Littlemill

One of several distilleries with a legitimate claim to being the oldest distillery in Scotland, Littlemill is situated near Bowling on the north bank of the Clyde close to Glasgow. The first claim of the distillery's existence is from at least 1772 when accommodation was built for the distillery's excise officers to live in. However new evidence has emerged suggesting that the distillery was purchased by George Buchanan in 1750 when he bought Auchterlonie estate. Up until the 1930Æs the distillery's produce was triple distilled. The stills in the distillery were of unique design, attributed to Mr Thomas the owner of the distillery, being pot stills with rectifying columns at their neck (much like the ones you would expect to see at a grain distillery). The hope was that this would make a whisky which could mature more quickly. At one stage the distillery made three different types of malt whisky, Littlemill, Dunglass and Dumbuck. From 1972 however the distiller concentrated on producing solely Littlemill. The distillery has had many owners throughout its history but is now owned by Loch Lomond Distillery Co. It was reopened for a short spell in 1989 but has since been closed and the distilling equipment partly dismantled. Constant rumors that the present owners plan to reopen the distillery on a small scale were sent up in flames in September 2004, when a major fire destroyed the distillery building.

Murray McDavid는 "동쪽의 Springbank"라고 묘사.

The Lochside distillery in Montrose was the main malt in the McNab blend. The distillery which started out as Deuchar's Brewery, distilled whisky from 1957 until it was closed by owners, Allied distillers in 1992. Although the warehouses have been demolished, the distillery still stands on the corner on the way north out of Montrose. Mostly bottled by independent bottlers, Lochside single malt is not widely available. Described by Murray McDavid as "the Springbank of the East".

Miltonduff distillery was build in 1824 and is a big part of the Ballantine blends. At one time the distillery operate two Lomond stills and produced a heavy, oily whisky called Mosstowie. These stills were removed in 1981 and replaced with traditional stills. Mosstowie can be found in independent bottlings and should be very collectable in the future.

Brechin은 Dundee에서 북쪽으로 20마일 떨어진 동부 해안가에
위치한 스코틀랜드에서 가장 작은 마을.
한때 이 마을 이름인 Brechin을 증류소 이름으로 사용.

Brechin is Scotland's smallest city, located on near the East coast, about 20 miles north of Dundee. It was once walled, and this distillery took its name from its location, close to the North gate (or North Port) to the city. Distilling commenced at North Port in 1820, under the ownership of The Townhead Distillery Company, and locally the distillery was often known as 'Townhead'. The company was purchased by DCL in 1922, and suffered a periods of closure from 1928 until 1937, and during the war years.
Following the war It operated in continual production until 1983, when it was one of the victims of the many distillery closures that year. Sadly, too much of the workings have gone for this once great distillery to distil again, and bottlings of North Port are becoming hard to find.

Pittyvaich was the sister distillery to the much more popular Dufftown. Pittyvaich was modeled after the Dufftown distillery even down to the stills. The two distilleries even shared warehouse space. Pittyvaich had a very short life span, it was opened in 1975 and closed in 1993.

Port Ellen 1891년 위스키가 2001년 11,000파운드에 판매됨.

It seems unthinkable that Port Ellen should be closed, with Islay whiskies as popular as they are now. Still, it is and will not reopen in its current form so it is looking like a hot tip to collect.
Built in 1825, the Distillery has had a difficult past, closed from 1929 and only re-opened in 1967 to enjoy only a seemingly final 17 years production. Acquired by UDV, Port Ellen became surplus to requirements with the company's presence in Lagavulin providing an Islay malt for the group and Caol Ila generating output for blended whiskies.
Much of the inner workings of the Distillery and the exterior building remained standing for a long time, but sadly, the stillhouse was demolished in 2003. Bottles have performed well at auction, with an 1891 bottling reaching £11,000 in 2001.

Situated on the banks of the Forth-Clyde Canal between Edinburgh and Glasgow lies Rosebank distillery. The present distillery dates back to 1840, although there are records of distillation under the name of Rosebank taking place locally prior to this. With the regeneration of the canal (driven by the Falkirk water wheel) it has been muted that the distillery could become a focal point of the area's industrial heritage, but most likely as a museum rather than a distillery. Truly, the Queen of the Lowlands this distillery closed in 1993. It remains intact, so could potentially distil again...we live in hope!

The original buildings of this closed distillery are on the Glasgow to Edinburgh railway line at the eastern end of Linlithgow, by which name its malt is sometimes known as. The site had several uses before it became a distillery in 1798. It was originally a hospital opened in the 12th Century used to treat lepers. It was then converted in to a convent known as St Magdalene convent or Lazar House.
The distillery was built adjacent to an existing distillery known as Bonnytoun (at one time there was five licensed distilleries in Linlithgow). The owner of Bonnytoun bought St Magdalene around 1800 and shifted his emphasis onto St Magdalene, as it was the more successful of the two distilleries. So successful was it that expansion followed Bonnytoun was absorbed into one big complex. In 1914/1915 the distillery became one of the original five distilleries that merged to form the Scottish Malt Distillers, the other four being Clydesdale, Glenkinchie, Grange and Rosebank. Sadly Glenkinchie is the only one out of the original five still in production. St Magdalene closed in 1983 and has been converted into flats. We will miss this elegant whisky in the future.

Tamnuvulin has had a fairly short existence, founded in 1966 and closed in 1996. There is hope that the distillery will reopen one day. The distillery was built in response to the rising demand of malt whisky for blending. Tamnavulin is a very modern distillery except for its visitor center which is located in an old mill. Tamnavulin is a sweet floral malt that hopefully will fire up the still once more.
