Coleburn Distillery was founded by John Robertson & Son Ltd. (blenders from Dundee) in the late 1890s and it was designed by the famous Elgin architect Charles Doig. In 1916, it was purchased by Clynelish Distillery Co. Ltd., and then in 1925, it was taken over by the partnership Distillers Company Ltd. (DCL), John Walker & Sons and John Risk. In 1930, it was then managed by Scottish Malt Distillers and DCL. At the time of its closing in 1985, it was licensed to J & G Stewart, blenders from Edinburgh.
Coleburn whisky was always intended for blending. It was a contributor to the Andrew Usher blends and was a part of the Johnny Walker blends during its more productive years. It is mostly available from independent bottlers and the occasional Rare Malts bottling.
