Gerston II was located just a mile from Gerston I Distillery, close to Halkirk Train Station.
The distillery was founded in 1886, however in 11 years it changed hands to Northern Distillers Limited, who changed the name to Ben Morven. Ben Morven ceased to exist in 1900, and was demolished in 1914.
Gerston II could not use the same water source as Gerston I, so they used Calder Burn as the main water source. There is no evidence that Gerston II used peat at all. In fact, their Whisky was described as "pure malt", which means that there was no peat in the Whisky.
