(1842-1925)
As visiting places go there are certainly worse places than a Scottish Distillery.
Founded in 1887, with the first drop of drink produced on Christmas Day, William Grant, along with his wife Elizabeth set out to make the best dram in the valley. Nearly 140 years later the company is still run by the founding family, now in its fifth generation of distillers.
A search online reveals little about Elizabeth herself – we know that she gave birth to around 9 children and was involved in the founding of the distillery, but little else is captured. Still, her recognition in the life size sculpture which welcomes visitors to the site is to be applauded when so little women at the time had any recognition for their part in history.
