Teaninich
Teaninich Distillery was built by Captain Hugh Monro on the lands of his Teaninich Castle near Alness on the northern shore of the Cromarty Firth in Scotland’s Highland whisky region. Established in 1817 with two stills which increased to four in the 1890s as demand for Teaninich malt whisky soared. A new Teaninich still house was constructed in 1970 to shelter an additional six stills. The new six and the old four, the A and the B, worked simultaneously until 1984 at which time the old B was closed and subsequently demolished in 1999. All that remains of the original Teaninich Distillery buildings is the receiver house which is now a listed building.

Teaninich
Teaninich Distillery, established in 1817 by Captain Hugh Monro near Teaninich Castle in the Highland whisky region, lies on the northern shore of the Cromarty Firth. Initially equipped with two stills using estate-grown barley, demand led to an expansion to four stills in the 1890s. A new still house with six stills was built in 1970, and both the original four and new six operated until 1984, when the older stills were decommissioned and later demolished in 1999, leaving only the historic receiver house. In 2014, construction of an additional six-still facility began, boosting capacity for its sought-after malt whisky
