The North British Distillery, located in the Lowland region of Scotland, was founded in 1885 by William Sanderson, Andrew Usher, and John M. Crabbie. This distillery has a rich history and has remained operational since its inception, contributing significantly to the whisky landscape. It is currently owned by a consortium of companies, which reflects its longstanding importance in the industry. With a production capacity of around 12 million liters annually, North British specializes in grain whisky, utilizing a combination of malted barley and maize. The distillery employs modern continuous column stills, which are essential for producing the lighter, sweeter profile associated with grain whiskies. The character of North British whisky is marked by sweet notes of fruit and vanilla, complemented by spices, malt, and nuts on the palate. The finish is characterized by a lingering sweetness, oak, and vanilla, making it a versatile component in blended whiskies. Notable expressions include the North British 14 Years - 2009 and the North British 33 Years - 1988 The Grainman, showcasing the distillery's capacity for producing aged single grain whisky, although official releases are rare and often sought after by collectors.
