Speyburn Distillery Manager Bobby Anderson Announces Retirement
Speyburn Distillery Manager Bobby Anderson has announced his retirement from the distillery after nearly 22 years.
Hailing from Elgin and with a grandfather who worked as Distillery Manager at MiltonDuff, Bobby believed he had whisky making in his genes. After stints at Ardmore, Glentauchers and Glenburgie Distilleries, he joined Speyburn in 2000 as Distillery Manager. Bobby helped oversee the 2016 refurbishment of Speyburn, which saw it become one of the most energy efficient distilleries in Scotland. He also oversaw the release of a celebratory Speyburn 18 Year Old to commemorate his 18th anniversary – currently the highest aged expression in the Speyburn range.
Bobby’s successor has yet to be named, but is expected to be announced in the near future.
