THE GENTLE SPIRIT FROM THE NORTHERN HIGHLANDS

THE HIGHEST DISTILLERY
Dalwhinnie- Gaelic meaning 'the meeting place' - is a fitting name for this distillery high on the wild, windswept moors of the Grampian mountains in the Northern Highlands. Here surrounded by the ancient forests and granite rock, cattle drovers in a time long ago would rest their herds.

   Since 1898, the distillery has stood on this ravaged moorland, isolated and buffeted by the weather, over 1000 feet above sea level and higher than any other distillery.


FROM A WILD ENVIRONMENT...
Yet it is from this most hostile of environments that the gentlest and purest Highland Malt is produced. Only the pure, cold water from the nearby abundant spring at Lochan and Doire-uaine is used , which flows underground before bubbling forth into the distillery burn, the Allt an t'sluic.

...COMES THE 'GENTLE SPIRIT'
Such pureness of water imparts a soft, whispery finish to Dalwhinnie Single Malt. It is an ideal alternative to liqueurs with its heathery delicate finish. The taste is light with a fruity sweet aroma . An aromatic malt, very easy to drink.

Tasting Note: Heathery finish, fruity aroma.
