Distillery
Founded in 1755
Dunbeath Distillery stood just outside the town of Dunbeath, in the far northern Highlands, about forty miles north of the Doroch Firth.

Very little is known about this relatively ancient distillery. It was founded by James Sotherland in 1755 --during a time of heavy illegal distilling and smuggling. It was eventually shut down, other details have not yet been documented.
