One thing all the bottlings have in common is the very high, excellent quality.

Brora
The history of this Northern Highlands distillery is a bit confusing.
It was built in 1819 under the name Clynelish and retained this name until 1969.

The previous year, 1968, the owners had a second distillery, also opened with the name Clynelish.
So they decided to rename the first distillery in Brora.

It was here until 1983 with some interruptions produced, since it is used as a warehouse for the new distillery Clynelish.
Brora is called only the whiskey from the old distillery, which was produced here from 1969 to 1983.
In the transitional period, between opening the new and renaming the old distillery, both produced under the name Clynelish.
