After a 18-month construction phase, the first new make came out of the stills at Dunphail Distillery on 6th October 2023. Meanwhile, the distillery in Morayshire/Speyside has reached full production size, which means an amount of 200,000 litres of alcohol per year.
The Dunphail Distillery was built on the site of a former farm and operates using traditional techniques, which include direct firing of the stills as well as on-site floor-malting and drying in a kiln. It is the first time since 1898 that new malting floors have been built on Speyside. The intention is to produce both smoky and non-smoky whisky.
