Speyburn Distillery

Speyburn Distillery is located in the beautiful Speyside region, near the town of Rothes in Moray. Founded in 1897 by John Hopkins, the distillery was designed by renowned distillery architect Charles Doig. Speyburn's location, in a valley surrounded by woods and the Granty Burn, a tributary of the River Spey, provides a natural source of pure water, which is essential for whisky production.

Speyburn whiskies are known for their light, fresh and fruity character, with notes of apple, pear, citrus and a subtle hint of honey and spices.

Speyburn mainly uses ex-bourbon casks and ex-sherry casks for maturation, which ensures a balanced and complex flavour. The combination of an idyllic location, traditional techniques and commitment to quality makes Speyburn a respected name in the world of Scotch whisky.

Speyburn Distillery

Speyburn was founded in 1897 by John Hopkins in a narrow, wooded valley near Rothes. He selected the site for the pure water of the Granty Burn and commissioned architect Charles Doig to design a distillery that fitted the steep landscape. Construction proved difficult, but Hopkins was determined to produce whisky during Queen Victoria’s Diamond Jubilee year. On the final night of 1897, the first cask was filled.

Doig built Speyburn across three levels and gave the distillery its distinctive pagoda roof. He also installed innovative pneumatic drum maltings, which remained in use until 1967. Speyburn became part of the Distillers Company Limited in 1916. Following several periods of silence, the distillery was acquired by Inver House Distillers in 1992.

Speyburn continues to use water from the Granty Burn and traditional worm tubs for condensation. This creates a spirit with sufficient structure, which develops into a delicate and fragrant Speyside style during maturation. Apple, citrus, malt, honey and gentle spice are often among its recognisable characteristics.
