Glenfiddich's lowland partner and like Glenfiddich, a
component of the Grant's blended whiskies. Unlike Glenfiddich however, Ladyburn
was not really intended for consumption as a single malt. As a single malt it
is available only from independant bottlers. Ladyburn was a modern distillery
opened in 1966 but it had a short life. The distillery was closed in the
mid 1970s. An adjoining grain distillery, Girvan, remains.
