Today is probably a historic day for Islay because it is confirmed that Bruichladdich will start a second distillery in the beautiful village of Port Charlotte. The name of this new distillery will be Port Charlotte Distillery, referring to the old distillery on the same location that closed down in 1929.
A quote from the Islay Weblog Bruichladdich Distillery has now officially announced its plans to create the new distillery at Port Charlotte. The distillery will be built, subject to planning permission, on the site of the Lochindaal Distillery that ceased production in 1929. The new name will be Port Charlotte Distillery, one of the original names of the 1829 enterprise. The Distillery was also known as Rhinns Distillery and Lochindaal Distillery.
