Crafted with Precision: Distillation and Maturation

This heavily peated spirit matures predominantly in ex-Bourbon casks, complemented by a select touch of ex-Oloroso Sherry casks. Bottled at 46% ABV without chillfiltration, it preserves the authentic character of the cask.

Delve into the past with Ballechin, a name rooted in the heritage of a Perthshire farm distillery that ceased operations in 1927. Inspired by Alfred Barnard’s accounts from the 1880s, this expression revives the legacy of peated whisky with reverence and innovation.
