Glencadam

In 1825, George Cooper founded the Glencadam whisky distillery. Throughout the 19th century, the distillery changed hands several times, but only twice in the 20th century. In July 1954, Andrew Stevenson and Harry Southwell sold Glencadam to Hiram Walker for £83,400. Five years later, Hiram Walker renovated the buildings, and in 1987, Allied Lyons, later known as Allied Domecq, purchased the distillery from Hiram Walker Gooderham & Worts. Allied mothballed the distillery at the turn of the millennium and sold it in 2003 to Angus Dundee. Despite being closed for three years, Allied had left the distillery in such superb condition that Angus Dundee was able to reopen it just two months after the acquisition. This was Glencadam’s second purchase by Angus Dundee, with Tomintoul being their first.
