Mortlach Distillery Tour

Information

Established in 1823 during an age of great achievement, Mortlach was the first legal distillery in Dufftown, the heart of Speyside. In it's primitive years Mortlach distillery was like all others, that is until George Cowie joined in 1853.

Previously an engineer during the Golden Age of Victorian Engineering, George applied his audacity, skill and determination to the distillery, taking it from strength to strength and growing its reputation across the world through a network of private customers.

By 1896, George's son Alexander joined the business, introduced the 2.81 distillation process, and set events in motion that would give us the rich, muscular whisky we know today.

A 190 year secret amongst whisky epicureans across the globe, Mortlach has been nicknamed "The Beast of Dufftown" by Dave Broom for its robust, rich character.

Join us for this amazing chance to tour the distillery and learn about its unique distillation process followed by a tutored nosing and tasting of Mortlach Single Malt Whiskies which give a decadent illustration of what Mortlach Distillery is known and beloved for.
