Aultmore Distillery
Aultmore Distillery is located in the Speyside region, near the town of Keith in Banffshire. Founded in 1896 by Alexander Edward, Aultmore has a rich history and is known for its high-quality single malt whiskies. The distillery is set amid the lush, green landscape of Speyside, which contributes to the purity of their production process.
A unique feature of Aultmore is the use of water from the nearby Auchinderran Burn, which makes for a pure and light spirit. Aultmore whiskies are known for their fresh and delicate flavour profiles, with notes of grass, flowers, honey, and subtle hints of herbs and citrus. The distillery uses traditional copper pot stills and long fermentation times, contributing to the whisky's complexity and depth.
Aultmore matures its whiskies mainly in ex-bourbon casks, which ensures a balanced and refined flavour. Although for a long time Aultmore was mainly used for blends, in recent years the distillery has gained more attention for its excellent single malts. The combination of an idyllic location, traditional techniques and high-quality production makes Aultmore a respected name in the world of Scotch single malt whisky.
Glenlivet Distillery
Glenlivet Distillery is located in the remote and scenic Livet Valley in the Speyside region of Scotland. Founded in 1824 by George Smith, Glenlivet was the first legal distillery in the region after the Excise Act of 1823, making it a pioneer in the Scotch whisky industry. Its location in the Livet Valley provides access to pure spring water from Josie's Well, which contributes to the distinctive purity of their whiskies.
A unique feature of Glenlivet is its use of mineral-rich water and lengthy fermentation, resulting in a smooth and fruity spirit. Glenlivet whiskies are known for their elegant and balanced flavour profiles, with notes of tropical fruit, flowers, honey and vanilla. Maturation mainly takes place in a combination of ex-bourbon and sherry casks, creating a rich and complex flavour.
The distillery continues to innovate and expand, making it one of the best-selling single malt whiskies in the world. The combination of a rich history, unique location and high-quality production makes Glenlivet a respected name in the world of Scotch whisky.
