The distillery will have the capacity to produce up to 1.5 million litres of spirit per year and will focus on producing premium Wolfcraig Highland single malt Scotch whisky, in addition to a range of other associated spirits.
The building, designed by Opfer Logan Architects, will
harness the latest technologies to ensure that sustainability is at its core.
Commenting on the news, John Moore, Director at Wolfcraig
Distillery, said: “Our new home has better links to public transport and is
much closer to the heart of Stirling, making it easier for visitors and
tourists to access the distillery. We are keen to be an integral part of
Stirling’s hospitality and leisure sector and so moving to this site makes a
lot of commercial sense.”
John went onto say: “The masterplan for the Craigforth
Campus is extremely exciting and will complement our ambitious plans for
Wolfcraig. We are looking forward to being located alongside other dynamic
businesses and amenities as this development progresses.”
The Wolfcraig Distillery will tap into Stirling’s rich
heritage by creating a new whisky experience which will incorporate a
distillery, an interactive, education-focused family visitor attraction,
private tasting room and bistro restaurant and bar.
