The idea was to unite the community of Dingwall through the creation of a distillery owned by local people. [ ![Vapour](/img/drop-light-blue.svg) Book a Demo ](/book-a-demo) Dingwall’s last whisky distillery closed in 1926. After a 90 year absence, GlenWyvis revived the town’s lost distilling tradition, and made its own history in 2016 by running a record-breaking open share offer. More than 3,000 like-minded people invested in GlenWyvis to create the first ever 100% community-owned distillery. It was an incredible response to an extraordinary idea. ![GW2](https://uptight-lapwing.transforms.svdcdn.com/production/GW2.png?w=1092&h=1092&q=80&fm=jpg&fit=crop&dm=1741271069&s=a1976f0616a6dba8e5e4d73c822ae357) ![GW1](https://uptight-lapwing.transforms.svdcdn.com/production/GW1.png?w=1092&h=1092&q=80&fm=jpg&fit=crop&dm=1741271104&s=ff531aa134beebe99b5ab9f4d518838a) ## How they've used Vapour #### Modules Used ![Production Module](https://uptight-lapwing.files.svdcdn.com/production/icons/Production-WH.svg?dm=1741271086) Production ![Maturation Module](https://uptight-lapwing.files.svdcdn.com/production/icons/Maturation-WH.svg?dm=1741271095) Maturation ![Bottling Add-on](https://uptight-lapwing.files.svdcdn.com/production/icons/Bottling-WH.svg?dm=1741271087) Bottling GlenWyvis Distillery used Vapour to digitise processes in Production and Maturation, removing the admin burden and reliance on spreadsheets [ ![Vapour](/img/drop-light-blue.svg) Book a Demo ](/book-a-demo) #### Features Used - ![Bullet Point](/img/bullet.svg) Digitising paper and spreadsheet production records - ![Bullet Point](/img/bullet.svg) Mashing & Distillation production efficiency - ![Bullet Point](/img/bullet.svg) Warehousing & barcoding of casks - ![Bullet Point](/img/bullet.svg) Maturing stock operations ![Brewdog distilling co](https://uptight-lapwing.transforms.svdcdn.com/production/logos/brewdog-distilling-co.png?w=600&h=177&auto=compress%2Cformat&fit=crop&dm=1741271076&s=0c590c9154a6fe5252fad4b1a35ef558) ![Duncan taylor](https://uptight-lapwing.transforms.svdcdn.com/production/logos/duncan-taylor.png?w=600&h=527&auto=compress%2Cformat&fit=crop&dm=1741271076&s=aa73e2f00844c9d99cbd687345a65906) ![Lochlea](https://uptight-lapwing.transforms.svdcdn.com/production/logos/lochlea.png?w=600&h=88&auto=compress%2Cformat&fit=crop&dm=1741271078&s=5db565088a1d27e06acc9f97718d14b8) ![Ad gefrin](https://uptight-lapwing.transforms.svdcdn.com/production/logos/ad-gefrin.png?w=600&h=565&auto=compress%2Cformat&fit=crop&dm=1741271077&s=38d6eb51dc5ef5380507e5809b1c2c08) ![Caley casks](https://uptight-lapwing.transforms.svdcdn.com/production/logos/caley-casks.png?w=600&h=226&auto=compress%2Cformat&fit=crop&dm=1741271075&s=572d8a20c1fec3f31edba3bb57d91cab) ![The lakes distillery](https://uptight-lapwing.transforms.svdcdn.com/production/logos/the-lakes-distillery.png?w=600&h=600&auto=compress%2Cformat&fit=crop&dm=1741271076&s=daa9da1c4fd2f84ebf8330923de3f763) ![V c](https://uptight-lapwing.files.svdcdn.com/production/logos/v_c.svg?dm=1741271076) ![Coopers](https://uptight-lapwing.files.svdcdn.com/production/logos/coopers.svg?dm=1741271078) ![Auchtermuchty Bond](https://uptight-lapwing.files.svdcdn.com/production/logos/Auchtermuchty-Bond.svg?dm=1741271074) ![Feddie Ocean Distillery](https://uptight-lapwing.files.svdcdn.com/production/logos/logo-blue.svg?dm=1741271075) ![SWI](https://uptight-lapwing.files.svdcdn.com/production/logos/SWI.svg?dm=1741271076) ![Still Spirit Blue](https://uptight-lapwing.files.svdcdn.com/production/logos/StillSpirit-Blue.svg?dm=1741271076) ![KIS Blue](https://uptight-lapwing.files.svdcdn.com/production/logos/KIS-Blue.svg?dm=1741271076) ![Castlelaw blue](https://uptight-lapwing.files.svdcdn.com/production/logos/castlelaw-blue.svg?dm=1775809374) ![Clon](https://uptight-lapwing.files.svdcdn.com/production/logos/clon.svg?dm=1741347581) ![Lowland Bond](https://uptight-lapwing.transforms.svdcdn.com/production/logos/Lowland_Bond_2025-07-28-113741_etaa.png?w=1200&h=741&auto=compress%2Cformat&fit=crop&dm=1753702661&s=609ad81b358faefe9ba9125d64c3e669) ![Copal tree blue](https://uptight-lapwing.files.svdcdn.com/production/logos/copal-tree-blue.svg?dm=1775809381)
