Destilerías y Crianza del Whisky S.A. is a Spanish whisky company formed by businessman Nicomedes García Gómez in 1958. It is currently a subsidiary of Suntory Global Spirits, a subsidiary of Suntory Holdings of Osaka, Japan. The first distillery, built in Palazuelos de Eresma in Segovia, began operation in February 1959. In March 1963, it started to produce Whisky DYC, the first Spanish whisky. The initial production of one million liters per year climbed to twenty million per year in the 1980s. The distillery is still capable of producing this much whisky, but recently output has only been a fraction of its capacity.
