Invergordon is a single grain distillery and supplies this for many blended whisky brands, including Whyte & Mackay. It was founded in 1959 with production beginning in 1961 and is in the town of Invergordon in the Highlands. The town was named after a local laird, Sir William Gordon, and grew to be a commercial and naval port in the early 1900s. The distillery is currently owned by Whyte & Mackay and produces a staggering 40 million litres of single grain per year. It is one of only six single grain distilleries in Scotland and the furthest north. The site was also home to the Ben Wyvis single malt distillery, which only operated for a short period between 1965 and 1977.
