Inchgower Distillery, founded in 1871 in Buckie, Speyside, produces smooth and rich single malt whisky known for its delicate fruit and honey notes with a subtle hint of spice. Primarily supplying whisky for blends like Bell’s, Inchgower also releases limited single malt bottlings. With a long history rooted in the Distillers Company Limited, it now operates under Diageo but remains a relatively low-profile gem. Using traditional copper pot stills and pure local spring water, Inchgower crafts a balanced and approachable spirit.
