If you drive up to the north on A95 for about 10 miles from Craigellachie, a town by the middle reaches of Speyside, you'll find a village called Bridge of Avon. Auchrachan is about 6 miles to Tomintoul on B9008. It stands in the hill where you can have a great view of The Glenlivet. The distillery was ran by William Gordon in 1790. After that the owner changed several times and they closed it in 1852. The part of the buildings from those days still remains and now they are used for barns.
