The Craigellachie distillery was built in 1891 by a group of blenders and merchants led by Alexander Edward. Two years later, it was incorporated as a limited company and in 1896 it was reconstructed as Craigellachie-Glenlivet Distillery Ltd.
In 1916 ownership passed to Peter Mackie, then to the Distillery Company Limited (in 1927) and SMD (in 1930). The transfer to SMD marked the beginning of a period of stability for Craigellachie; apartfrom a reconstruction in 1964-65 during which the number of pot stills was doubled, relatively little happened at the distillery. In 1998, it was sold to John Dewar & Sons (Bacardi-Martini).
Cragaillachie is running 4 stills. The new make is condensed in special so called worm tubes, which gives the whisky characteristic fruity notes.
