There is a local saying in Dufftown: “Rome was built on seven hills and Dufftown stands on seven stills.”
Is it any wonder then that the Speyside region is widely revered around the world for its sublime malt whiskies? This fertile triangle of land between mountain and sea has long been known as the Garden of Scotland.
Bang in the centre, this geologically stunning landscape, split by rivers and valleys, and dominated by high eroded peaks, is like paradise for the enthusiastic walker. With time to explore, you can visit a particularly beautiful spot where the River Dullan bubbles past a distillery. Look carefully and you’ll see kingfishers diving for fish. Welcome to the picturesque home of the Singleton™ of Dufftown.
Following those early attempts by rival distillers to divert the course of the crystal-clear spring waters used by the Dufftown Distillery, there has been little for those at the distillery to worry about, allowing them to focus on the delivery of this magnificent spirit.
