Edinburgh based company J & W Hardie were founded in 1857 by James Hardie, and began as Tea blender and wine merchant in Picardy Place, Edinburgh in 1861. The next logical step for the company was whisky blending, and The Antiquary brand was born in 1888, taking it’s name from the Walter Scott novel. Early bottles featured a caricature of one of Scott’s main characters (likely the antiquary himself, Jonathan Oldbuck) on the label.
Still going strong, The Antiquary was given a makeover in 2015 to modernise the brand for a younger audience and highlight its unique bottle shape. Today the blend counts France, Portugal, Russia, Angola, the UK and the US among its most successful markets.
