By 1817 the distillery had passed to Philp & Haig. Two Stein’s continuous stills were installed in 1830 and Coffey’s continuous stills were added by the mid1880s. Cameronbridge produced both grain and malt whiskies until 1929. A small proportion of Cameronbridge grain whisky is nurtured by Hunter Laing in quality casks to produce aged, single grain and single cask grain whisky in their Sovereign grain whisky range.
