BENRIACH Distillery Company has bought the Glenglassaugh distillery for an undisclosed sum.
The Banffshire distillery dates back to 1875 but lay mothballed for more than two decades before being re-opened in 2008.
Now Amsterdam-based owner Lumiere Holdings has decided to sell to Edinburgh's BenRiach.
BenRiach is headed by master blender Billy Walker and South African investors Geoff Bell and Wayne Kieswetter.
