The Bulloch family can trace its interest in the Scotch Whisky trade back to 1842 when Gabriel Bulloch partnered J H Dewar in a Scotch wholesaling business in Glasgow.The familys involvement in the whisky business continued until the late 1940s when, due to the untimely early death of their father, Sandy and his sister Irene were required to join their mother to help with the operation of the single shop that the family owned in Glasgow. They used to (as was the practice then) buy barrels of Scotch whisky, brandy & rum and bottle it in their shop cellar. Shortly thereafter Sandy bought his first fillings, (new or immature whisky) and thats where the story really started.
The Bulloch family built up a substantial chain of retail outlets in Scotland (A. Bulloch & Co.). In order to supply these, a wholesale company was acquired (Wm. Morton Ltd.), and although its primary function was to supply A. Bulloch & Co, its business gradually grew and it is now one of the largest independent wholesalers of wines, spirits and beers in Scotland.
A. Bulloch & Co. continued to sell their own label whisky, gin and vodka, which became an increasingly important sector. Subsequently it became prudent to set up their own bottling plant (Glen Catrine Bonded Warehouse Company Ltd.), which again (although its primary function was to supply the retail outlets) has grown into one of the largest independent bottlers of spirits in Scotland.
This whisky gets its name from the bonded warehouse.
