Scope and Content The Glenlivet Distillery, Minmore, Banffshire This distillery was originally built in 1858 by G and JG Smith to replace their earlier distilleries at Drummin and Delnabo. After a series of changes in ownership it was acquired in 1977 by Seagram of Canada. This view shows the offices of the distillery, probably dating from the 1880s, when there seems to have been a substantial reworking of the complex. The main productive buildings are to the rear, with the dark grains (byproduct) plant to the left. The Glenlivet was in the late 19th century one of the largest Highland Malt whisky distilleries, and its product was a component of Andrew Usher's pioneering blended whisky known as 'Old Vatted Glenlivet'.
