Gordon & MacPhail is a renowned independent bottler of Scottish whisky and owner of the famous Benromach distillery. Known for its exceptionally diverse range of bottlings from some of Scotland's most prestigious distilleries, this house embodies whisky excellence. Founded in 1895, originally as a grocer and wine and spirits merchant in Elgin, northeast Scotland, the company was led from 1915 by former apprentice John Urquhart. More than a century later, Gordon & MacPhail remains an iconic family business in the world of quality spirits.
The Glenlivet distillery, located in the heart of the prestigious Speyside region in Scotland, was founded in 1824 and has operated almost continuously for over two centuries. True to its history, it remained open during the Great Depression, having only closed once during World War II. Its spectacular post-war development made it one of the largest and most respected Single Malt distilleries. Today, Glenlivet distillery is proudly owned by the Pernod Ricard group, ensuring consistent quality and international renown.
