Current status?

Unsure of the current status of the distillery. I've taken out the link as it seems to be a linkfarm & not related to the distillery (though Google suggests it used to be the official site). Some googling shows that the distillery has had problems, but someone with local knowledge might be better placed to disintangle the web of articles in local and industry press. The key question - is it a currently operational distillery? If yes, the Highland_Park_Distillery article needs updating, if no, then this one. Canthusus (talk) 15:40, 24 January 2009 (UTC)

As far as I am aware, there is still no distillery. The company went into administration last year but is now formed again as Catfirth Ltd. The other spirits (Jago, Blackwood's Gin and the like) are being made by another company (Blavod or something like that). —Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.170.56.108 (talk) 15:36, 15 November 2009 (UTC)
