Wolfburn distillery is a Scotch whisky distillery in Thurso, Caithness, Scotland. After ceasing production in the 1850s it reopened in 2013. ==History== Wolfburn distillery was founded just to west of the town of Thurso, Caithness,〔Farrell, S (2005w) 'Pennylands, Thurso, Highland (Thurso parish), watching brief', Discovery Excav Scot, vol.6 Page(s): 89〕 in 1821〔http://www.dcs.ed.ac.uk/home/jhb/whisky/dists.html List of Distilleries in Date order of Foundation (The University of Edinburgh)〕 by William Smith.〔http://www.whiskyportal.com/distillery.asp?DistilleryID=841&DistilleryName=Wolfburn+Distillery Wolfburn Distillery on The Whisky Portal〕 The distillery was of considerable size for its day and ran as a successful commercial enterprise for several decades, being handed down through several generations of the Smith family. It is thought to have ceased production during the 1850s, although the exact date is a matter of debate. The distillery appears on the first Ordnance Survey map of the area, dated 1872, marked as a ruin. The reasons for its demise are unclear - very little remains of the original distillery and there are no known photographs. However, records of its annual production volumes of whisky can be found in tax returns, which show it producing 28,056 “Total Gallons of Proof Spirit” during 1826〔http://books.google.co.za/books?id=OjoSAAAAYAAJ&pg=RA1-PA243&lpg=RA1-PA243&dq=wolfburn+distillery&source=bl&ots=80cmGiyYlI&sig=VtvLzWNcB8XZ8snx0ffjTyuVMos&hl=en&redir_esc=y#v=onepage&q=wolfburn%20distillery&f=false House of Commons Papers, volume 34〕 (roughly 125,000 litres) – making it the biggest distillery in Caithness at the time.
