Charles and David Gray, brothers, created the Adelphi Distillery in 1826. It was situated on the border of Glasgow's Gorbals neighborhood, just south of the Victoria Bridge. The Gray family ran the distillery until 1880, when Messrs. A. Walker and Co., a business that already possessed sizable distilleries in Limerick and Liverpool, bought it.

A year's worth of pure alcohol produced by the distillery was 516,000 imperial gallons (2,350,000 L).
