Wolfburn is the northernmost Whisky distillery on the Scottish mainland and derives its name from the burn (stream) from which it takes its waters named Wolf. Originally the distillery opening was in 1821 just 350 meters from its current location and by the 1870’s it was marked in an ordinance survey map as a ruin. In 2012 approval was gained to build the new Wolfburn distillery which is the one producing at present. During the Covid-19 pandemic, countless events and gatherings had to be cancelled or postponed, The Mey Highland Games of 2020 were one such event, this release commemorates the postponement of the Mey Highland Games of 2020.
