Sepa has published a list of “enforcement undertakings” it accepted from companies in 2022 following pollution incidents. The Ferret has previously reported on climate pollution and environmental breaches by whisky companies. William Grant told Sepa that fermented liquid leaked from its famous Glenfiddich distillery in Dufftown in January 2022. The Ferret revealed in October 2022 that Grant’s whisky distillery in Girvan was one of Scotland’s top 20 climate polluters in 2020 and 2021. The Scottish Environment Protection Agency disclosed that inspectors would visit the Glenfiddich distillery to confirm that Grant has complied with its undertaking.
