Angus Dundee Distillers

Privately-owned distilling and blending operation, active in some 70 overseas markets.

Based in London, Angus Dundee Distillers Plc. was established in 1950 by ex-Burn Stewart executive Terry Hillman as a Scotch whisky blending company, and is now run by his children Tania and Aaron. In 2000, Angus Dundee purchased the silent Tomintoul distillery from JBB (Greater Europe), giving it access to single malt stocks. Tomintoul was one of the new breed of functional post-war Scottish distilleries, established in 1964, but despite its austere appearance it was located in beautiful if remote country, just a few miles from the great Glenlivet distillery. Three years after buying Tomintoul, Angus Dundee acquired Glencadam from Allied Domecq in order to augment spirit supply. By contrast with Tomintoul, Glencadam boasted a long history of whisky-making, having been founded in 1825 by one George Cooper.
