Kinclaith was the last distillery in the city of Glasgow. It was built in
1957 to become part of a complex that already housed the Strathclyde grain
distillery. The original owners were the American company Schenley, through
their subsidiaries Seager Evans and Long John. When the latter was sold to
Whitbread in 1975, Kinclaith was dismantled to make room for an extension to
the grain distillery. The independant bottlers have stocks of Kinclaith.
