EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken by the renowned Illustrated London News Ltd in 1890, offers a glimpse into the intriguing world of whisky production at the Glenlivet Distillery during the Victorian era. The image showcases the vast expanse of a bonded warehouse located in Edinburgh, Scotland, with an astonishing six thousand barrels of maturing whisky occupying the ground floor. Proprietors Andrew Usher and Co. were the stewards of this impressive operation, dedicated to the manufacture and trade of this beloved Scottish spirit. The image transports us back in time, allowing us to witness the industrious process that transformed raw ingredients into the amber-hued elixir that would eventually be bottled and shared with the world. The casks, filled to the brim with whisky, are arranged meticulously in neat rows, each one contributing to the aging process that would enhance the spirit's rich flavors and complexities. The dimly lit warehouse, with its wooden barrels and rustic atmosphere, speaks to the traditional methods employed during this period. This photograph serves as a testament to the dedication and craftsmanship that went into producing whisky during the late 1800s. The image offers a unique perspective into the history of the whisky industry and the meticulous process behind the creation of this iconic Scottish drink.
