About a year ago, the Gordon & MacPhail company got the official “go” to build their planned whisky distillery in Craggan near Grantown-on-Spey: The plans, submitted in spring 2019, got the approval of the responsible Cairngorms National Park Authority and so the construction of the distillery with a visitor center, tasting rooms and coffee shop could start.
After several delays work finally began this year on the site, which offers a view of the impressive Cairngorm Mountains and now it’s time for the next milestone, says the family-run company Gordon & MacPhail. They proudly announced the name of the distillery and whisky brand: The Cairn.

In cooperation with a Glasgow agency, ideas from employees and shareholders were collected. More than 300 proposals were made, which led to a shortlist and ultimately to the favorite name “The Cairn”. It gives a clear hint of the geographical allocation of the distillery in the Cairngorms and can also be represented as a logo in the form of a stylized Cairn (a kind of stone pyramid).
The construction of a tasting room and coffee shop will be finalized near spring 2022.
