Cardhu
Cardhu in Gaelic means "Black Rock", it was among the first distilleries to obtain the license back in 1824, this after 10 years of clandestine activity, they were difficult years for Helen and her husband John, founders of Cardhu, it is said that Helen cooked a great number of cakes to cover the smell of fermenting barley and have something to offer to the tax inspectors when they wandered around the countryside in search of clandestine distilleries and while they were refreshing themselves at his table he ran to display a red flag to warn the farm neighbors of their visit. We can say that Cardhu was the first distillery to be run by a woman after the death of her husband. Today the distillery is owned by John Walker & Sons.
