The Glentauchers Distillery Company started as a joint venture between James Buchanan, the creator of the "Black & White" and "Buchanan" blends and WP Lowrie. The distillery was designed by local architect John Alcock. In 1925 James Buchanan & Company became part of the DCL empire. Glentauchers worked continuously, with exception of the war-time years, until 1985 when it was mothballed. In 1989 it was sold to Allied Distillers who restarted production. Glentauchers is a key component in Allied Domceq's Blended Scotch Whisky brands.
