Glen Mhor's home town Inverness, at the western fringe of Speyside had three
distilleries - none of which survives. All were owned by the Distillers
Company Limited which became United Distillers. Glen Mhor and
Glen Albyn were neighbours on the western side of the
city. Glen Mhor, built in 1892, was once powered by a water turbine. For some
time it provided whisky for the Mackinlay blends. It closed in 1983 and has
since been demolished but its whisky can still be found. Purists pronounce it
Glen Vawr.
