Dufftown

Aberlour single malt Scotch whisky,

 This is a distillery of Speyside in Aberlour, Strathspey in Scotland, the village lies on the Lour Burn which converges with the River Spey near Ben Rinnes, just about 200 metres from the distillery, in the 6th century Celtic saint St Drostan, baptised local chiefs in the distillery’s water source.

The single malts are made from expertly crafted new spirit, usually double cask matured for at least 12 years in the finest hand picked Oloroso Sherry butts and American Oak casks, this is how the whisky matures to an exquisite complexity.

Steeped in centuries of legend and surrounded by the dramatic Highland scenery of Ben Rinnes, the village of Aberlour lies at the very heart of Speyside, where the Lour burn joins the River Spey. The exceptionally pure, soft spring water used for making Aberlour whisky is drawn from nearby natural springs. The resources of nature and the founder’s passion for making the best single malt combine to make the generously multi-layered whiskies of Aberlour. The expert crafting of spirit and cask has created a range of superlative single malt whiskies with layers of complexity and a velvety richness.

The name Allt A Bhainne distillery, comes from the Gaelic it translates as 'Burn of Milk'. Allt-A-Bhainne distillery was built in 1975, it was not originally built for single malt production, there are no large rickhouses for long-term storage. Most of the spirit is sent in tankers to the Chivas casking facilities, and the rest is barrelled and then sent for storage.

Today the equipment is contained in a single room with mash tun at one end and four stills at the other. in recent years occasionally they produce Allt-A-Bhainne, a heavily-peated variant whisky with smoky notes and classic Speyside elements.

This is a Scotch whisky made in a distillery in the Speyside Region of Scotland, it was built by Seagram in 1975 during a period of growing optimism in the Scotch industry the distillery can be found down the road from the well-known whisky town of Dufftown.

Allt-a-Bhainne is only very occasionally seen as a single malt bottling, with a global demand rising, owner Chivas Brothers has the distillery in full production once more.
