Inspired by photographs of the Glengoyne distillery
Glengoyne distillery is a whisky distillery continuously in operation since its founding in 1833 at Dumgoyne, north of Glasgow, Scotland. Glengoyne is unique in producing Highland single malt whisky matured in the Lowlands. Located upon the Highland Line, the division between the Highlands and Lowlands of Scotland, Glengoyne’s stills are in the Highlands while maturing casks of whisky rest across the road in the Lowlands.
In April 2003, Ian Macleod Distillers Ltd. acquired Glengoyne Distillery, the 'Glengoyne Single Malt' and 'Langs Blended Whisky' brands, with Leonard Russell as the managing director for Ian Macleod.

In their own words: “Rosebank’s growing recognition as one of the great whiskies ultimately inspired its resurrection as a distillery. Ian Macleod Distillers believed that a place capable of producing such delicious single malts should be rescued.”
After two years of hard work behind the scenes, Ian Macleod Distillers announced the rescue of Rosebank in 2017. It was a very special day for Scotch whisky and its hometown of Falkirk. And a pivotal moment for its new owners.
In the words of Managing Director Leonard Russell: “Reviving an iconic distillery and a quintessential Lowland single malt is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.”

Rosebank was rescued just in time by the Ian Macleod Distillery in 2017, and after 30 years of silence, a sleeping giant awoke in the summer of 2023.
The new Rosebank preserved the old distillery, with its Victorian red Brock and imposing chimney, as much as possible, integrating it with a striking new design.
I created these paintings as a vision of the fabulous celestial building, symbolizing its glorious times, from its history to the future.

A rising giant, a reborn legacy.
After 30 years of silence, production resumed at Rosebank Distillery in the summer of 2023, a milestone to remember.
"The Rosebank Stills" is the first of four paintings I want to create as a tribute to this incredible distillery and all the people involved in the Titanic's effort to bring it back to life.

Glentauchers has six pot stills, and its long fermentation and slow distillation result in a spirit with a floral and fruity flavor.
Almost all of Glentauchers is used in blended whisky.
Bottles of Glentauchers single malt whisky are rare outside of the independent bottler Gordon & McPhail.
