Whiskies from Dallas Dhu

Dallas Dhu

The Dallas Dhu Distillery is a non-operative Speyside distillery, which is modified as a museum known as the Dallas Dhu Historic Distillery. There by, Dallas Dhu is one of Scotland’s many lost distilleries that has shut down for good, but has remained unforgotten. The majority of Dallas Dhu Single Malt Whisky was released by independent bottlers, such as the Dallas Dhu 1982 Gordon McPhail and the Dallas Dhu 1979 Cadenhead. In addition to that, this Speyside distillery has released some very exclusive distillery bottlings such as the Dallas Dhu 1975 Rare Malts Selection, which is a true whisky enthusiast wanna-have whisky!

During its relatively short lifespan of less than a century the Dallas Dhu Distillery walked down a somewhat turbulent road, which eventually led to the unfortunate demise of the distillery. Dallas Dhu was founded as the “Dallasmore Distillery” in 1899 by Alexander Edward of Sanquhar, a skilled and passionate Speyside distiller. Only one year after its establishment, the distillery changed ownership to Wright & Greig Ltd., the owners of which renamed the distillery into “Dallas Dhu” to emphasize the link with their most successful blend Roderick Dhu.

Dallas Dhu was acquired in 1921 by the well-intended owners of the Benmore Distillery, which on its turn was acquired by DCL (currently known as Diageo) in 1929. Shortly after the take-over, DCL shut down the Dallas Dhu Distillery for almost a decade. Dallas Dhu woke out of its dormant state and continued its operations in 1939, but disaster struck again when a fire set ablaze in the distillery and unfortunately destroyed almost the entire building. The distillery continued its production continued again in 1947, but among many other distilleries Dallas Dhu exhaled its last breath in 1983, due to the decreasing global demand for single malt whisky.
