North-Port Brechin 36 Year Old 1981 Signatory 30th Anniversary

North Port Distillery, originally founded as Towhead Distillery by David, John, and Alexander Guthrie in 1820, was located near the north gate of Brechin in Scotland’s Highland whisky region. Initially, cooling for the distillery's two stills was provided by the Den Burn, which flowed through the grounds. Coal for production was first delivered by cart from Montrose, later transported by steam train after the railway's arrival in 1848. North Port ceased operations in 1983and was demolished in 1994, with the site now hosting a supermarket. A preserved red sandstone window frame serves as a memorial to this lost Highland malt whisky distillery, whose rare whiskies are occasionally released by independent bottlers.
