Convalmore takes its name from the
Conval hills to the west of the
distillery. The distillery was
established by Convalmore - Glenlivet
Distillery Company and production began
in February of 1894. In 1907 Convalmore was
almost completely destroyed by a fire,
the still house was the only part that
was saved. The distillery was rebuilt
and a continuous still was put in, they
began experimenting with continuous
distillation of malt whisky. This experiment
was later abandoned when they found it
was affecting the spirit during maturation.
DCL took over the distillery in 1930, it
was mothballed in 1985. It was bought
by William Grant & Sons, who own the neighbouring
Glenfiddich, Balvenie and Kininvie, to be
used as warehouse space.
Up until 2005 Convalmore
had only ever been bottled as a single
malt by independent bottlers never by
the distillers, but a very rare original
bottling was released in 2005 of a 28
Year Old cask strength Convalmore single
malt. This is a very rare original
bottling which you will only find at
specialist whisky retailers such as
The Whisky Exchange.

Sorry we have no individual tasting

syrupy, fruity, biggish. A excellent
after dinner dram.
