Convalmore 1975 Rare Old (2015)

Convalmore Distillery, founded in 1893 near Balvenie Distillery in Scotland’s Speyside whisky region, began producing malt whisky the following year. Notably, a continuous still was later installed and operated until 1915, when it was replaced by four pot stills, marking a significant shift in production methods. The tall, square still house that once accommodated the continuous still remains intact and is one of only two such buildings surviving in Scotland. Although Convalmore ceased operations in 1985, with its original equipment subsequently removed, the distillery buildings still stand—making Convalmore a lost Speyside distillery cherished by collectors. Bottlings are exceedingly rare but include Gordon & MacPhail’s Convalmore Rare Old, reflecting the enduring appeal of this historic site among Scotch whiskyenthusiasts
