| Information |
It is a hi-tech distillery, and the whole process is conducted by just one person. This is possible because everything in the distillery is situated on the same level.
When the whisky is distilled, it is transported by tanker lorry to warehouses in Keith where it is transferred in casks and matured.
Never bottled as a single malt in the past by Chivas, Allt-A-Bhainne has only been available through independent bottlers.
The production is used for the blends of the group: Chivas Regal, Passport, Something Special et 100 Pipers. |
