Ballindalloch Aberdeen Angus 150th Anniversary

ABV: 50% 70 cL

The 2026 release commemorates the 150th edition of the Aberdeen-Angus Cattle Society Herd Book and is marked by a special collaboration with Ballindalloch Distillery.

At the heart of the story is Ballindalloch Estate, a rare example of a true single-estate whisky producer where agriculture and distillation operate side by side. The estate is also home to one of the world’s oldest herds of Aberdeen Angus cattle, whose role goes far beyond tradition. The cattle consume spent grain from the distillery and contribute to the land’s fertility, supporting a closed-loop system of farming and whisky production that defines the estate’s sustainable approach.

This special single malt has been crafted by marrying whiskies matured in first-fill ex-Sherry and first-fill ex-Bourbon casks. The result is a balanced and expressive release, combining richness, depth, and structure in a style that reflects both the distillery’s character and the estate’s integrated way of working.

Fruit salad, ripe bananas and a hint of tangerine with some time open to air.

Vanilla, milk chocolate and more fruit. Almost like a chocolate-covered raisin!

Long with pleasant wood tannins coating the mouth.

Whisky type Single malt

Ballindalloch Distillery, founded in 2014 on the Ballindalloch Castle Estate in Speyside, is owned and run by the Macpherson-Grant family. It was created by converting 19th-century farm buildings into a small, traditional distillery, built by local craftsmen with minimal automation. Known as Scotland’s first single-estate distillery, Ballindalloch grows all its own barley, uses water from springs on the estate, and returns spent grain to the land for cattle feed. Production is deliberately slow, with long fermentation times and copper pot stills paired with worm-tub condensers, producing a rich and fruity Speyside spirit. With an annual capacity of around 100,000 litres, it focuses on craftsmanship, provenance, and patience—bottling only after proper maturation to reflect the estate’s natural character and dedication to quality.
