The Glen Ord distillery was founded in 1838 by Thomas Mackenzie in the Black Isle area north of Inverness. The distillery takes its name from The Ord, a plain 15 miles north of Inverness. In 1882 Alexander Mackenzie registred the name Glenoran for the whisky distilled at Glen Ord distillery. In the early 1980s, the Glen Ord whisky was still known as Glen Oran, during the late 1980s as Glen Ordie. Glen Ord doubled their distillery capacities by a big new building with several new wash and spirit stills in 2014.
