Mossburn Distillers & Blenders is a Scotch whisky project owned by Marussia Beverages, part of the empire controlled by Swedish billionaire Frederik Paulsen. The company is headquartered in Jedburgh in the Scottish Borders on the site of the former Jedforest Hotel. There are plans for a new distillery, called Reivers Distillery, which will be one of the first new distilleries to be built in the Borders for over 150 years.
Mossburn have also established Torabhaig Distillery on the Isle of Skye, which opened in 2017 (the second distillery on Skye after Highland Park). The parent company also own the Kaikyo Distillery in Japan, which produces Hatozaki whiskies. Not content with this, they have also created the peaty Caisteal Chamuis whisky range. The first Mossburn bottlings were released in 2017.
Building a whisky distillery and waiting for whisky to come online (the spirit has to be aged for at least 3 years before it can even be called whisky) is a long-term project. So, in the meantime, Mossburn have started the ball rolling by bottling a small collection of ever-changing single malt whiskies and two permanent blended malts, an Island and Speyside, with bespoke cask bills. There are also some very limited, occasional, small batch and single cask bottlings.
Miltonduff Distillery, founded in 1824 by Andrew Peary and Robert Bain, is located six miles southwest of Elgin in Speyside, Scotland, on the site of Pluscarden Abbey’s former mill. Named after the Duff family, it transitioned from illicit to legal whisky production and became one of Scotland’s largest producers by the late 19th century. Owned by Chivas Brothers (Pernod Ricard) since 2005, it produces around 5.8 million litres annually, primarily for Ballantine’s blended whisky.
