Imperial only produced whicky for 45 years of its 115 year history. There are few bottlings and there has only ever been one official bottling, a 15 years old expression from Allied Domecq. Imperial's production was used for blending rather than bottled as a single malt. Consequently, Imperial has a rarity that makes it an interesting malt for collectors. In October 2012, Pernod Ricard, the owners of then mothballed Imperial Distillery announced plans to build a new malt whisky distillery, Dalmunach Distillery, on the site of the old distillery which had sat mothballed since 1998.

Both production and process water for cooling water was fed by gravity two-and-a-half-miles from the Ballintom Burn, itself fed by the runoff from Mannoch hills. A turbine which can still be seen also generated the distillery’s power.

Imperial is equipped with one stainless steel mash tun with traditional mixing gear, six larch wood washbacks and two pairs of copper pot stills (2x wash stills and 2x spirit stills).
