Distillery Information

The Balmenach Distillery itself was one of the first distilleries in Scotland to be licensed in the production of Scotch whisky. The distillery is situated in the heart of the Cairngorm National Park, at the foot of the Haughs of Cromdale. Inspired by the landscape that surrounded them – distiller Simon Buley wanted to use the ancient skills and recipes of spirit making and to harness the age-old Celtic botanicals that grow on the surrounding hills of Balmenach Distillery.
