About Inchgower Distillery

Inchgower Distillery, located on the outskirts of Buckie, Moray, produces a single malt whisky of the same name. 

Built in 1871 to replace Tochineal Distillery, Inchgower was liquidated in 1903. Buckie Council purchased the distillery in 1936, and ownership transferred to Arthur Bell & Sons Ltd in 1938. To this day, the Bell’s logo is used in Inchgower’s advertising. 

In 1985, Arthur Bell & Sons was taken over by Guinness, which merged with United Distillers and Vintners in 1987. Guinness plc then merged with Grand Metropolitan in 1997 to form Diageo. Inchgower’s distillations contribute to Bell’s blended whisky. Classified as a Lower Speyside Malt, Inchgower takes its water from a burn rising in the Menduff Hills south of Buckie.

Inchgower is a renowned distillery located in Scotland with a rich heritage in producing fine whiskies. The rarity and quality of their products makes them desirable to collectors and enthusiasts, only increasing their value over time.

Whisky typically gains value as it ages and matures in the cask. The longer it remains in the cask, the more it has the potential to develop complexity and depth of flavors. We offer cask purchase programs that allow you to select the type of cask and aging duration, providing you with control over the maturation process.

Buying a cask allows you to own a unique piece of Bladnoch’s Kirkcowan Spirit production and a part of Bladnoch’s history. As the availability of aged and limited-edition whiskies decreases over time, the scarcity of these bottles can drive up their value.


Whisky has experienced growing popularity worldwide, particularly with the rise of collectors and investors seeking alternative assets. If the demand for premium Scotch whisky remains strong or continues to increase, it could positively impact the investment potential of your Kirkcowan Spirit (Bladnoch) cask. Recently we have seen the price of a standard bottle of Bladnoch rise from £40 to £80.
