History

Established in 1864, George Willsher crafted his masterpiece. By the late 19th century, his blended whisky was already being exported to new markets across Europe. To cope with this demand, he founded his own distillery called Glen Coull, and the brand rose to new heights with the repeal of Prohibition in the USA. The whisky was revitalised in 2001, after parent company, Duncan Taylor was purchased by Euan Shand.
