In 1879, for his recovery took James Fleming, who is now considered the founder of the distillery Aberlour in the form in which it survives to this day.
The son of a local farmer, James Fleming, was engaged in the supply of grain and knew many distilleries, who were his clients. The knowledge and experience led him to create his own distillery. He purchased land in Aberlauer, in place of the burnt plant, near an invaluable source of water - the river Spey. James himself was engaged in the design of buildings and personally supervised every stage of construction. A fire in 1898 destroyed several buildings of the plant and large stocks of whiskey.

Currently, the plant produces 3.2 million liters of alcohol per year. Aberlour whiskey is sold in more than 50 countries around the world.
