 Founded by Andrew Dewar and William
Rattray in 1868, Dewar Rattray began
trading as an importer of French wines,
Italian spirits and olive oil. More
importantly, however, the company also
established itself as a specialist in
the field of blending and storage of
malt and grain whiskies.
In 2004 the company was revived by Tim
Morrison, previously of Morrison Bowmore
Distillers and fourth generation
decendant of Andrew Dewar.
The Dewar Rattray whiskies which form
their Cask Collection portfolio are
sourced from distilleries throughout
Scotland. This extensive range of
whiskies is bottled at natural strength
and colour without any unnecessary
chill-filtration.
Therefore all of the flavour from the
cask goes into a bottle.
You will also find a single malt whisky
named Stronachie in their range, this is
named after a distillery which closed in
the 1930s. Tim Morrison purchased on of
the last few remaining bottles of
Stronachie and found a Highland
distillery which could reproduce its
character. Many believe it is actually
made at the Benrinnes distillery.
They had to change their name to A. D.
Rattray recently to avoid confusion with
the well known Dewar's whisky brand.
