Probably one of the most sustainable distilleries in the United Kingdom if not the world, plenty of thought has been given to the environment before designing and developing this distillery. There’s a local hydro-electric generator that provides the cooling water and local forest wood chips that are used to heat the hot water for mashing. The draft left behind after the mash is used to feed local cattle and the pot ale is used for fertilising local fields. Owned and operated by Adelphi the distillery it boasts 2 stills and 7 wash backs. The owners of the distillery are also a very well know quality independent bottler. The first Limited Release from Ardnamurchan distillery. This is a vatting of unpeated spirit matured firstly in first fill Bourbon barrels then finished in nine wine barriques from Paul Launois, a new Champagne producer in Le Mesnil-sur-Oger.
