The company was established in 1823 in Dublin by Alexander Findlater.

The Findlater brand of blended Scotch whisky was established early on in the company’s history by founder Alexander Findlater, whose uncle was a Scottish excise officer who held a superior office to the poet Robert Burns.

The company is still in business, now under the name Findlater Wine & Spirit Group, although the whisky brand has not been bottled since the early 1980’s.
