Arran

We revived the tradition when we built our new distillery in Lochranza, at the north end of the island. Building work started on the distillery on 16th December 1994. First spirit ran through the spirit safe at 2.29pm on 29th June 1995. The Distillery was officially opened on August 17th. After 3 years of maturation, the first cask of Arran Single Malt Scotch Whisky was opened on 25th July by Scottish film star Ewan McGregor. This was the first legal dram on Arran for over 160 years. The Visitor Centre was opened on 9th August by Her Majesty The Queen.
