You may recall that back in early 2014 plans were unveiled for a £40 million distillery at the former site for the Jedforest hotel near Jedburgh in the Scottish borders.

The Scottish government has now given the go ahead for the £40 million project which will see 2 distilleries built, Jedhart Distillery and Mossburn Distillery at the former site of the Jedforest hotel.

The project will see two whisky distilleries, a bottling hall, maturation warehouses, offices and a visitor centre constructed, it will create around 50 jobs and should be a huge boost to the Borders both now and in the future.

This is the first I have heard of Mossburn and Jedhart, the Mossburn distillery will have quite a significant output making it quite a big player in the Scotch whisky world.

As easy drinking as the typical Lowland style is, it isn't a style I want often, hopefully they do surprise us as you say William, something with more body and character than you would find in a lowland whisky would be of interest to me.

That is quite an output, and a lot of single malt to sell when it has matured but that wont be for some time. Shows great confidence in the future of Scotch malt whisky.

This is the first I have heard of Mossburn and Jedhart distillery's, we will soon be able to go on a whisky distillery tour of the Borders with the amount of distilleries going up in the area.
