History

• Glen Flagler was built in 1964 by the American group Publicker, which was also known as Inver House at the time.
• According to the Glen Flagler timeline, it was built in 1965, and it lay within the Moffat Grain Distillery complex alongside Garnheath Grain and Killyloch; there is some disagreement about whether Glen Flagler and Killyloch constitute one single distillery or two separate units.
• Production was primarily intended for the American blend industry, but there were also single malt bottles in the 1960s and 1970s, which today are highly sought-after collectibles.
• As demand for blended whisky in America declined, Inver House decided to close the distillery in 1985.
• In the 1970s the owner Inver House also produced Killyloch; both whiskies were removed from the program after a few years. Both experienced a brief renaissance when independent bottlers such as Signatory launched several Glen Flagler and Killyloch bottles in the 1990s.

Production/Manufacturing

• The Moffat complex (also known as the Inver House distillery complex) was an integrated distillery in Moffat, Airdrie, North Lanarkshire, Scotland, converted from a former paper mill. The complex handled the administration of Inver House Distillers Ltd., a malt-house, three named distilleries, warehouses and a bottling line.
• The malt used came from the malting house, which was sold in 1978 to Associated British Malsters Ltd.
• The water belonging to the distillery came from Lilly Loch; the warehouses and bottling line were also used for the group's other whiskies.
• Glen Flagler activities were primarily aimed at producing whisky for the American market (blends), and single malt bottles were only produced during the 1960s and 1970s.
• All the warehouses and the bottling line were used for the group's other whiskies.

Products/Whisky Series

• In the 1960s and 1970s Glen Flagler produced single malt bottles, which today are sought-after collectibles; some bottles have been valued at prices above £1,000.
• Production was primarily aimed at American blends, but a few single malts were also produced during the period.
• Later, Killyloch was also produced by Inver House, but this was removed from the program after a few years. Later, both types of whisky experienced a renaissance through independent bottlers, including Signatory in the 1990s, which launched numerous Glen Flagler and Killyloch bottles.
