In the year 1745, Prince Charles Edward Stuart sailed to Scotland to defend his heritage. Raising an army of Highland clans, he sought to restore the exiled Kings and claimants of the House of Stuart to their rightful places - the thrones of England, Scotland and Ireland.

Victory was almost his when the rebel prince reached Derby, 130 miles from London. But fate showed him no favour and the prince was forced to retreat back into Scotland. The prince, by now in hiding, continued to evade capture thanks to the loyalty of the Highlanders. Despite a '30,000 pound' bounty on his head, he was never betrayed by those who believed he would return, to fight once more.

On fleeing from the Isle of Skye, legend has it that the prince bequeathed the recipe of his personal elixir to his loyal supporter Captain John MacKinnon. There it remained, lost in the mists of time for over a century, until it began to be produced at The Broadford Hotel by James Ross. It soon became known as An Dram Buidheach - 'the drink that satisfies' - and was then registered as Drambuie in 1893.
