For over 160 years, Brora distillery produced a range of exquisite single malt Scotch whiskies, captivating the hearts of whisky connoisseurs worldwide.

Brora, originally known as "Clynelish", had to change its name with the opening of a new distillery in 1968. This second facility, also named Clynelish, prompted a rebranding of the original distillery to Clynelish B, while the new one was termed Clynelish A. In 1968, Clynelish B temporarily closed its doors, only to reopen in 1969 under a new name: Brora. From this point, both distilleries operated side by side until 1983 when Brora ceased operations and was mothballed.

But the story doesn't end there. After a hiatus of 38 years, Brora distillery was revived and production resumed in 2021. This momentous occasion brought delight and excitement to the whisky community, as it meant the continuation of the iconic Brora whiskies.
