Daftmill Distillery is located on the site of a farm that has been reportedly in the Cuthbert family for centuries. In fact, according to the brothers, Ian and Francis, who run the farm and the distillery, there have only been three families that have worked the land at Daftmill in 1,000 years. So, principally, it’s a farm that yields malting barley sold to the whisky industry, prized beef cattle and a successful potato crop. So, when did the brothers decide to turn their hand to whisky production?
