A Family Owned Business
Stuart is a successful business leader who has recently taken a new start distillery business to profit in 3 years and successfully sold it on
behalf of the shareholders within 5 years.
He has worked in the Scotch whisky industry for over 30 years starting as project engineer in Speyside before managing several high profile
distilleries and moving on to Distilleries Director for one of the largest Scotch producers. He then started his own consultancy where he negotiated the purchase of Glenglassaugh Distillery in Scotland on behalf of a group of overseas investors and then managed the refurbishment of the distillery before restarting production after a 22 year gap.
Stuart created and built the Glenglassaugh brand, winning several international awards for the quality of the whisky, while creating a
distribution network stretching to over 25 markets across 5 continents.
Following the sale of Glenglassaugh Distillery Company, Stuart is once again devoting all his efforts to The Malt Whisky Company, assisting
entrepreneurs entering the industry or those seeking technical or commercial advice.
A graduate of both Heriot-Watt University, Edinburgh (BSc Chemical Engineering) and Strathclyde University, Glasgow (MBA) he brings a refreshing blend of theory, practicality and innovation to all of his roles.
