History of ANCNOC 12YO Highlands Whiskey

The distillery was founded in 1893 by John Morrison. Shortly after purchasing the land from the Duke of Fife, a few water sources were discovered on the southern slope of Knock Hill.
As the quality of the water was confirmed, construction of the distillery began immediately. The site also had the advantage of being close to Knock station on the Northern Scottish Railway between Aberdeen and Elgin.
