The first four stills began fabrication in March 2024 and were installed by December 2024. Fabrication of the remaining four stills commenced in November 2024, working to a June 2025 deadline. All stills were made at our Rothes copper workshops, with cradle supports fabricated and painted in-house at our Buckie facility.
The fully assembled 4-metre cradle supports were first positioned in the stillhouse, followed by the precise lifting and placement of the 6-metre still pots and heads. Installation for the remaining 4 stills, led by Forsyths with support from IDI Services Ltd, began the week commencing 5th May and was successfully completed by the 19th May.
It has been a privilege to contribute to the future of Aberlour Distillery.
