Parkmore distillery is a inactive Speyside single malt Scotch whisky distillery in Dufftown, Moray, Scotland. [1]
Parkmore was founded in 1894 by the Parkmore Distillery Co., but ownership was transferred to James Watson and Co. Ltd. in 1900. [2]
This company was then acquired by John Dewar & Sons Ltd. in 1923. In 1925, ownership was transferred again to Distillers Company Ltd. DCL transferred it to Scottish Malt Distilleries Ltd. in 1930, and stopped production in 1931. [3]
Parkmore was finally closed in 1988. [1] in the same year Parkmore distilery was sold to Highland Distillers and the buildings were converted into a whisky warehouse facility. [4]
In 1999 Edrington acquired Highland Distillers, the Parkmore owner, through a partnership with William Grant & Sons taking a minority interest (the 1887 Company). [5]
