Dalwhinnie was founded by John Grant, George Sellar, and Alexander Mackenzie in the late 19th century. Positioned in the heart of the Cairngorms National Park, it remains one of Scotland's most iconic and remote distilleries, celebrated worldwide as Diageo's classic Highland representative.
Established in 1897 in the high-altitude mountain village of Dalwhinnie, the distillery is famous for its unique worm tubs. This traditional condensing method prevents copper contact, yielding a heavier spirit that ages into a smooth, honeyed style.
