Glentauchers Distillery, established in 1897 near Keith in Speyside, is a hidden gem known for producing light, smooth single malt whisky with delicate fruity and floral flavours. While it plays a key role in popular blends like Chivas Regal, Glentauchers occasionally releases sought-after single malts, often through independent bottlers. The distillery uses traditional copper pot stills and draws water from the nearby Conval Hills, contributing to its fresh and clean character. Now owned by Pernod Ricard, Glentauchers combines over a century of heritage with modern whisky-making techniques, maintaining a low profile despite its important place in the whisky world.
