Legal distilling on the remote Ardnamurchan Peninsula was unknown until independent bottler Adelphi opened its distillery there in 2014. However, this is not the first distillery to be named Adelphi.

The original was built in the Gorbals area of Glasgow in 1826, passing into the hands of Archibald Walker in 1880, making the firm the only distillery to produce whisky in Scotland, Ireland and England. By 1887 the distillery was producing over 500,000 gallons of both malt and grain whisky a year. In 1903 it was bought by DCL and four years later production ceased. Grain was produced until 1932. Glasgow Central Mosque now stands on the site.

Archibald Walker's great-grandson, Jamie, founded Adelphi as an independent bottler in 1993. His current owners bought the firm in 2004.
