United Distillers

United Distillers

United Distillers was a Scottish company formed in 1987 from combining the businesses of Distillers Company and Arthur Bell & Sons, both owned by Guinness. The company owned six Scotch whisky brands, which were relaunched as the Classic Malts range.

In 1997 Guinness merged with Grand Metropolitan to create Diageo, and in 1998 United Distillers was merged with International Distillers & Vintners to create United Distillers & Vintners.

In 2001 the company was renamed Guinness United Distillers & Vintners Scotland, and then re-named once again in 2002 to become Diageo Scotland (registered in Scotland, No. SC000750).
