Craigellachie-Glenlivet Information

The distillery is located in the village of Craigellachie (meaning "rocky hill") at the centre of the Speyside region.

Craigellachie is proud of its sulphurous character. Some say that the first thing you smell as you enter the distillery is the notes of cabbage and beef stock. They also add weight to the palate of the mature spirit.

The long fermentation period has fixed fruitiness within the spirit and this tropical/floral note emerges in the mature spirit - full, yet aromatic and this has made Craigellachie a prized malt for blending.
