Glen Mhor
Built in 1892, Glen Mhor Distillery (pronounced ‘glen vwar’) was, both in ownership and physical location, the sister distillery to Glen Albyn. The Inverness distillery was the first distillery to experiment with Saladin boxes – a mechanical malting device widely used until the 1960s when distilleries started to outsource malted barley more and more – and continued to use these until the maltings was closed in 1980. A popular single malt, Glen Mhor found low-key fame as a bottling in its own right, quite an accomplishment considering the market was dominated by blends.
Unfortunately for its loyal consumers, the distillery was closed in 1983 and demolished three years later.
