House of Burn
Also called House of Burns, a lost distillery at Monzievaird, near Crieff in Perthshire.
Yetts of Muckhart distillery
Highland Single Malt Scotch Whisky
Yetts O' Muckhart is a scattered hamlet in Perthshire threaded with burns and rivulets; the River Devon skirts its eastern flank.
The area was long reputed to be home to Britain's most remote Rolls Royce servicing centre, set up by an enterprising local for the chauffeur-driven cars of guests staying at Gleneagles Hotel, nine miles to the north.
There are several farms and crofts in the area where this distillery might have been, but no such site is marked on older maps, making its exact location hard to ascertain.
Yetts of Muckhart History
Yetts of Muckhart was first registered to A Balfour & Co. in 1817, but distilling stopped in 1819. Distilling restarted in 1825 under Mr B F Mylne, but ceased again the following year. Finally, in 1831, Mr J W Rennie revived the distillery, but he was sequestrated in 1832 and Yetts of Muckhart closed for good.
