Founded in 1825 by Member of Parliament Captain Robert Barclay, the distillery was granted permission to use the “Royal” suffix from King William IV in 1835. Following his death in 1857, the Highland distillery was sold to William Ritchie at auction, staying in the family until 1936. The Glenury Distillery Company took over briefly, before the distillery was purchased by Associated Scottish Distillers in 1938.
