Kennetpans

The distillery that formed the Scottish and Irish whisky industries as we know them today

Almost 200 years from its closure, the Kennetpans legacy still lives on

To this day both the largest Irish Whiskey brand (Jameson) and the largest European distillery (Cameronbridge) have their roots at Kennetpans, not to mention the Haig brand itself

I challenge anyone to name a distillery past or present that has impacted more on our whisky industry

Kennetpans is not a lost distillery
It is a lost legend

“In essence, Kennetpans is part of the DNA of the modern whisky industry worldwide. That it and its surroundings are so complete is remarkable and it deserves to be preserved as a landmark to the heritage of the whisky industry. Kennetpans is the ground zero of the whisky industry”

Our aim is to tell the largely forgotten story of Kennetpans and the Stein Whisky Dynasty and to raise awareness of the deteriorating ruin of the once mighty distillery.
