Deanston sits on the River Teith near Doune in the Highlands, converted from an old cotton mill into a distillery in 1966. It produces an unpeated, naturally characterful single malt known for its soft, honeyed sweetness, creamy texture, and gentle spice. Long fermentation times and a focus on natural production (including non-chill-filtration) give the whisky a wholesome, cereal-rich profile. The distillery is also powered by its own hydroelectric turbine, adding to its reputation for simple, honest, quietly distinctive whisky.
