The Strathclyde Distillery was first founded in 1927 and the first spirit was produced in 1928. Schenley Industries of New York acquired the distillery in 1956 and added a single malt to the range branded Kinclaith. In 1975 the Kinclaith stills were decommissioned and the distillery again only primarily produced grain whisky under the owners Whitbread. It is today owned and operated by Pernod Rocard and mainly produces grain whisky for their signature blends and also independently bottled single grain whisky.
