Lindores Abbey is a distillery in the Scottish council area of Fife, located right next to the ruins of Lindores Abbey, considered the spiritual home of Scotch whisky. The ruins of Lindores Abbey came into the possession of Ian Howison in 1913, and his great-grandson Drew McKenzie Smith began building the distillery in 2016 on the site of the monastery's farmyard, which had disappeared almost without a trace.
Scotland and Scotch whisky is a global trend, a development that has led to a flourishing whisky scene in Scotland. There is hardly a week that goes by in which there is no news about another new distillery being built or the reopening of a distillery that has been closed for a long time.
Scotland, together with Ireland, is today considered the motherland of whisky, whose roots there go back to around 1500 AD.
