Thank you for this inside into GlenTurret Destillery. Planning to walk the Rob Roy Way next year and I wanna take an extra route to Comrie, hope I finde the time aswell for a visit at GlenTurret.
The Murrays definitely owned the land it was on Ochtertyre Estate. Don’t have any knowledge of the present incumbents but Willie Murray, sadly committed suicide, that was back in the late 1970’s. He was friendly with Bing Crosby, Willie ran a theatre at Ochtertyre House & it was a dance venue in the early 1970’s. I did meet him a few times, he was fond of a drink, rather ironic, and so was Bing Crosby. When we were kids in the early 1960’s there were some very cold Winters, we used to go ice skating on the small lochs below Ochtertyre House. There also used to be a Private Girls School in the grounds. Drummond Estates, are west from Crieff and run westwards up Glen Artney, over around 33,000 acres. I did meet the Earl of Ancaster, many many moons ago and an old friend of mine lived on the Estate, his Dad was a Gardener or Forestry worker.
Lucy Armstrong is delightful as was the fine distillery visit. I will need to get some of this delicious sounding malt. Kind regards, SF
My favourite bit was the mash tun being mixed by hand
The aroma was incredible, too - like a huge and comforting bowl of porridge.

Interesting
2:25 the Murrays owned the lands? I believe Creiff was within the Drummond family. Kindly correct me as may be an aftermath of Colloden?
