Craigellachie: The Romantic & The Pragmatic | Dave Broom | 2019

Craigellachie: The Romantic & The Pragmatic by acclaimed whisky writer Dave Broom is much more than a conventional distillery history. It is a beautifully produced and illustrated portrait of Craigellachie Distillery, its people and the ideas and events that shaped its character.

Founded in 1891, Craigellachie stands in the heart of Speyside yet produces a deliberately robust style of whisky, with traditional worm-tub condensers contributing to its distinctive character.

Broom looks beyond machinery, production figures and technical detail to uncover the stories behind the distillery. The narrative encompasses entrepreneurship, engineering, warfare, music, moonshine and the individuals who helped create Craigellachie’s identity.

This 2019 edition features Dave Broom’s essay, photography by Stuart Miller and additional copy by Sophie Donovan. It contains 91 pages and was printed in Italy by EBS.

With its distinctive design and photography, this is as much a collectable whisky publication as a distillery book. This particular copy remains unopened in its original shrink wrap.
