Fife-based Scotch whisky-maker InchDairnie Distillery is launching its first Single Malt Scotch Whisky releases. Further showcasing its reputation as a pioneer in flavour exploration in the whisky sector, KinGlassie Double Matured Aged 8 Years Fife Single Malt Scotch Whisky and KinGlassie Raw Aged 8 Years Fife Single Malt Scotch Whisky launch on 8th May 2025.

We’re excited to announce that from 1st May 2025, InchDairnie Distillery Ltd and MacDuff International (Scotch Whisky) Ltd will officially merge to form InchDairnie Whisky Ltd.

We recognise that whisky relies on natural resources for its production, and that making a peated whisky uses a precious Scottish resource. We do not take this for granted.  Extraction has an impact on the environment, so we are taking steps to balance what we use by supporting peatland restoration across Scotland.

In this ever-changing landscape of sustainability, we feel we are in safe hands. Much of our carbon footprint is in our cereals, so working directly with both Munton’s and our local Fife farmer at Balgonie Estate, we are working together to reduce this.

Our partnership with Muntons has been crucial to our success as a Fife grown, Fife distilled and Fife matured distillery. The relationship we have developed with Balgonie Estates as a result of this, is essential to the ongoing production of our RyeLaw whisky.

As we approach our 10th anniversary next year, we are doubling our production capacity to 4 million litres per year — ushering in a new era of innovation to meet the rising demand for our bold, flavour-led whiskies.

InchDairnie had the pleasure of hosting BBC landward at the distillery for a feature in the latest season of BBC Scotland’s Landward.

September rolled around and it was soon time to take the lead for our main weekend with LeBlanq as their luxury whisky partner for the 2023/24 and this time we were in the heart of Perthshire at the beautiful Dunalistar Hotel Suites, on the banks of Loch Rannoch.

We are delighted to be awarded Highly Commended by the IWSC in the Design Award category.

Last week, our Brand Ambassador Rob, joined LeBlanq for another unforgettable weekend in Norway.

To get some inspiration for her dishes, Lorna visited the distillery in Fife to learn about our innovative process and to get a flavour of our precision distilled malted rye Scotch whisky.

RyeLaw Fife Single Grain Scotch Whisky is awarded Gold by the Beverage Testing Institute.

At the end of June, our Chairman Ian and Brand Ambassador Rob attended LeBlanq’s first Joyride weekend of the year in Champagne, with Michelin-Star Chef Anthony Demetre, and cycling legends Greg Lemond and Nico Roche.

We are delighted to have won the Sustainability and Net Zero Award at the Fife Chamber of Commerce, Fife Business Awards.

We’re delighted to announce the official launch of RyeLaw in the US.

Today, InchDairnie Distillery announces a significant management transition, as whisky industry visionary Ian Palmer will hand over the reins as Managing Director to Scott Sneddon, the distillery’s current Distillery Director.

Our innovative approach to flavour continues with the launch of our small-batch trilogy series, the Sample Room Range, available exclusively on launch from the Whisky Shop.

InchDairnie Distillery is proud to announce its partnership with Gebr. Heinemann for the European expansion into Travel Retail for our first release, RyeLaw Fife Single Grain Scotch Whisky, now available at Copenhagen, Frankfurt and Vienna airport.

In early 2023, we announced our partnership with luxury cycling tour specialist, LeBlanq as their official Global Whisky Partner for 2023/24. LeBlanq believe in rewarding life’s hard work with the ultimate escapism – indulgent weekends of eating and drinking all whilst joyriding in some of the world’s most beautiful cycling and culinary destinations.

The global roll out of our first brand, RyeLaw, continues with the launch in Taiwan and Japan. Both these countries are key markets in this important whisky region and we are delighted to be working with Union Liquor in Japan and Drinks, Wines and Spirits Co in Taiwan.

“A very special, extremely successful, innovative whiskey.” Joachim Teschke

The month of July saw our Managing Director, Ian Palmer, spend two fantastic days in Hamburg and Berlin, officially launching RyeLaw in Germany.

As part of our collaboration with LeBlanq – creators of the ultimate joyriding experience in some of the world’s most beautiful cycling and culinary destinations – RyeLaw from InchDairnie Distillery will be spotlighted at their Loch Lomond event.

The secret is out. We are creating a true winter distillate using peated malted barley.

The name of the distillate, that will one day be mature whisky, is KinGlassie, named after the nearby village, and it is believed to be the first peated whisky from the Kingdom of Fife in modern time.
