Dalwhinnie Distillery [NAT]
OS (GIS) MasterMap, February 2010.
NN68NW 4.01 NN 63812 85388 Bonded Wharehouse
(Location cited as NN 638 854). Distillery, Dalwhinnie, late 19th century. A neat range of two-storey buildings, with two handsome malt kilns.
J R Hume 1977.
Following the inclusion of Dalwhinnie as one of United Distillers' 'Classic Malts', the company invested heavily in the distillery's visitor facilities in the 1990s. In order to enhance its visual appearance and attract visitors passing along the A9, the kiln pagodas were covered with lacquered copper, and the still-house vertical condenser units were replaced with traditional wooden worm tubs in 1994, the work being completed by R G Abercrombie of Alloa.
An additional photographic survey was carried out in 2002 in order to record these changes.
Information from RCAHMS (MKO), 2002.
