Produced at the Girvan grain distillery, the Ladyburn single malt (also known as Rare Ayrshire by independent bottlers) was produced for only 9 years, from 1966 to 1975. This very rare Lowland whisky, renowned for its delicate aromas, is particularly rare in the current market.

A Lowland single malt distilled at Ladyburn, a malt distillery built on the Girvan site (grain distillery) by the family-owned company William Grant & Sons, operating from 1966 to 1975. A version bottled by the independent bottler Gordon & MacPhail in 2000 under the Rare Old label. Independent bottlings of Ladyburn are all bottled under the name “Ayrshire”.The Rare Old range was introduced in this format in the mid-90s. In just the 12 months of 1996, Glenlossie 1961, Convalmore 1960 and Glenrothes 1961 were all released on the market. Two colours - brown and burgundy - were used for labels up until 2010. In 2012 the range was fully updated to suit modern tastes.
