Tour Scotland Video Of Old Photographs Of Cameron Bridge Whisky Distillery Fife

Tour Scotland travel Blog video of old photographs of the whisky distillery in Cameron Bridge a village in the conurbation of Levenmouth, Fife, Scotland. In 1824 the Haig distillery was opened. In 1830 it became the first distillery to produce Grain whisky using the Column still method invented by Robert Stein. In 1877 John Haig & Co merged with five other whisky companies to form the Distillers Company, with John Haig & Co coming under DCL's full ownership in 1919. Cameron Bridge produced both grain and malt whisky using a combination of pot stills and column stills until 1929, when it shifted exclusively to grain whisky production. For a period between 1941 and 1947, the distillery closed due to World War II. It is currently the largest of the remaining grain distilleries in Scotland.
