Mackillop's Choice independent whisky bottler was founded in 1996 by Angus Dundee Distillers (owner of the Glencadam and Tomintoul distilleries).It is named after Lorne Mackillop, the heir to the chief of the Mackillop Clan, which was all but wiped out by the English in the aftermath of the battle of Culloden in 1745 during the Jabobite Rebellion. Lorne selects the whiskies that go into McKillop's Choice.

Glenrothes first started producing whisky in 1879 and from 1963 to 1989 it more than doubled its number of stills from four to 10. Formerly owned and operated by the Edrington group, the brand is now owned by Berry Bros & Rudd after a brand 'swap' in 2010 that saw the Cutty Sark blend move to Edrington in return.
