Glenesk, formerly Highland Esk Distillery and North Esk Distillery, was a whisky distillery near the town of Hillside, Angus, Scotland. The distillery was founded in 1897 by the wine merchant James Isle from Dundee as Highland Esk Distillery from a flax mill and, like so many other distilleries, has not only experienced a large number of changes of ownership, it must also have been the distillery with the most changes of name in its history. The distillery, which was closed in 1985, was known for its unusually large stills, the production was temporarily used for blends, so it was a significant part of the William Sanderson VAT 69. Glenesk single malt bottlings are rarely found today, mainly the whiskies are still available under the name Hillside and the Rare Malt Series.
A special piece of whisky history and one of the few original bottlings with the name Glenesk from the closed distillery Glenesk for collectors, connoisseurs and lovers of extraordinary old Scotch whiskies.
