Aberlour Distillery, founded by James Fleming in 1879, is located in the Scottish region of Strathspey, the home of Speyside single malt Scotch whisky. Under UK legislation, Speyside is a protected region for Scotch whisky distilling. The River Spey, and the proximity of barley farms and the Atlantic port of Garmouth make this dry and warm area a perfect place for whisky makers. Strathspey has the greatest number of distilleries of any of the whisky producing areas of Scotland, and about 50% of the country's whisky is made by some 50 distilleries in this region. After the founder's death, Aberlour Distillery changed a few hands, and joined the Pernod Ricard family in 1975, when the French group acquired Campbell Distilleries. The Aberlour brand is now managed by the group's subsidiary Chivas Brothers, whose portfolio comprises 13 malt distilleries, a grain distillery, and two gin distilleries. Aberlour Distillery, which has won an outstanding list of trophies and medals, is strongly rooted in the community, and makes its generously multi-layered whiskies using pure, soft Ben Rinnes water from nearby natural springs and the finest locally sourced barley. The founder's mantra of âLet the deed show', is strongly manifested in the end product, and the distillery makes some of the best single malt Scotch whiskies being produced today. The distillery's whiskies are generally double-cask matured for a minimum of 12 years, first in ex-American Oak barrels, followed by finest hand-picked Oloroso Sherry butts. |
