Production

The kit, where a primary source publishes it. Where a figure is missing it is because no producer publishes one — the secondary spread on distillery capacity reaches fivefold, so we would rather show nothing than pick a number.

On the condensers

Historic only — worm tubs ran until around 1966.

Recent changes worth knowing

A new still house in 2024 added seven pairs, taking the total to 28 stills and doubling capacity to 21 million litres of pure alcohol. Chivas Brothers' own online archive has not caught up and still shows a 2018 figure of 29 stills and 20.5m litres — treat the official archive as stale on this point.
