The distillery was demolished in 1992. Founded around 1800 it changed from a malt distillery to a grain distillery in 1966 when three column stills were installed. There remained a cooperage until 2010. It was transferred to Cambus near Alloa.

„The new Diageo Cambus Cooperage near Alloa has been custom designed in close co-operation with the company’s coopers, drawing on generations of skill, craft and experience and combining it with the state-of-the-art British engineering - never before used in a cooperage - to dramatically improve the working lives of the coopers.“ See: www.scotchmaltwhisky.co.uk

The modern state of the art cooperage was opened by His Royal Highness, The Earl of Wessex, on November, 28th 2011. Prince Edward is also a Honorary Member of the Incorporation of Coopers.

About 250.000 whisky casks will be repaired, set up and rejuvenated at Diageo‘s most modern Cooperage per year.

Diageo‘s grain distilling Director Richard Beford who was the head of the Cambus Cooperage Project   explained: "The demand for Scotch whisky is growing around the world, particularly in the emerging markets of Asia and Latin America. To meet that increasing demand Diageo is investing in growing Scotch whisky production capacity across Scotland. That means we need more casks than ever before, so the new Cambus Cooperage is a key part of the future success of our Scotch whisky brands." See: www.scotchmaltwhisky.co.uk
