Tomatin distillery is located in a village of the same name which is about 25 Miles south of Inverness, The distillery is classed in the Highland region of whisky and the is believed to had whisky distilled on the site since the 16th century. 

The offical record states it was established 1897 under the name the Tomatin Spey Company. The humble beginnings of the distillery upto 1958 only has two still producing their whisky. After 1958 they started expanding the operation by adding more stills until during the 1970s were producing nearly 12.5 million litres per year. 

By 1987 Tomatin was considered by a fair few to be largest malt distillery in Scotland, but despite this during this period some of the stills were sold off or dismantled reducing their annual output to roughly 5 million litres.  And the reduction didn't stop as of 2007 their production levels had halved again to 2.5 million litres per year.

This was not the only troubled period for the distillery in 1906, Tomatin declared bankruptcy, but was reopened 3 years later in 1909 under new ownership. In 1986 as the distillery was reducing it production, the ownership changed hands again this time purchased by a Japanese conglomerate Takaro Shuzu. 

In recent times the distillery is making efforts to reestablish its self and up it production currently sitting at around 5 million litres per year, They also rebranded a few of their bottles changing out the basic 10 year old for a 12 year old. While producing and releasing some limited editions of a 32 Year old, a 40 Year Old and some limited Single cask releases. 

A distillery that is in the ascendancy to reestablish its name and reputation in the whisky market.
