Glenglassaugh

Glenglassaugh (pronounced Glenglassoch) was founded in 1875 in Portsoy, Aberdeenshire. The original owners were Glenglassaugh Distillery Co. but the distillery was acquired in 1892 by Highland Distillers Co, a partnership founded by Wm Grant’s and the Robertson family.
In 1907 only fifteen years after the takeover, Glenglassaugh closed and it remained that way until 1931. After a five-year burst of activity it was closed again from 1936-1960. Before it did re-open, Glenglassaugh was completely overhauled and re-equipped and continued in production until 1986 when it was again forced to close.
The license was once more returned in 1992 but for a long time it seemed that a revival of the distillery was unlikely. That all changed in 2008 when new ownership and management breathed new life into a distillery many had thought was lost forever.
