Burnside Distillery, located in Campbeltown, Scotland, was founded in 1825 by the partnership of McMurchy, Ralston & Co. This distillery played a significant role in the early whisky industry of Campbeltown, an area once celebrated for its numerous distilleries. Despite its promising start, Burnside ceased operations in 1919, reflecting the broader decline of the Campbeltown whisky industry during the 20th century. At its peak, Burnside produced blended malt whiskies that exemplified the character of Campbeltown. The distillery utilized traditional methods and equipment, contributing to a rich and complex flavor profile often noted for its maritime influences and subtle smokiness. The notable expressions from Burnside, including the 22-year-old 1996 Burnside and the 21-year-old 1992 Rare Cask Select, showcase the depth and age that can be achieved in whisky production. With an age range of 13 to 22 years, Burnside whiskies are remembered for their well-rounded profiles, making them an interesting study for whisky enthusiasts. Although the distillery is no longer operational, its legacy continues to be appreciated by collectors and connoisseurs alike.
