La destilería Isle of Tiree, la primera destilería operativa legal de la isla desde el siglo XIX, alberga ahora una de las operaciones de producción de whisky más pequeñas y tradicionales que Escocia tiene para ofrecer.
Cada parte del proceso se elabora a mano con precisión, con una mirada atenta al pasado pero con una visión entusiasta del futuro.
Alongside Isle of Tiree Single Malt Scotch Whisky and Isle of Tiree Single Grain Scotch Whisky – Rye, Tiree Whisky Company are also the producers of both Tyree Gin and Hebridean Pink Gin.

Inspired on a photography of the distillery
Kavalan Distillery has been pioneering the art of single malt whiskey in Yilan County, Taiwan since 2005.
The double distillation method is applied at the Kavalan Distillery. Stills are usually run in pairs.
The first distillation is to separate the alcohol and water. The second is made up of three parts: the close-ups (the first spirit out of the still), the heart, and the feints (the last spirit out of the still).
The best part of the heart is collected and packed in barrels for maturation.

Inspirada en una fotografía de @bladnochwhisky
Bladnoch's rich history dates back to 1817 when John and Thomas McClelland first obtained a license to distill whisky on their Bladnoch farm in the Scottish Lowlands.
For nearly a century, successive generations of the McClelland family grew and modernized the distillery.
Over the next 80 years, Bladnoch Distillery changed hands several times and continued to produce the finest Lowland whisky.
En 2015, el empresario australiano David Prior adquirió la empresa.
Después de 2 años de renovaciones bajo la dirección del Maestro Destilador, Ian MacMillan, Bladnoch Distillery reanudó la producción.
Y en 2019, el aclamado Maestro Destilador, el Dr. Nick Savage, se unió al equipo dedicado y apasionado de Bladnoch.

Thanks to my very creative friend John Robertson at @scotchwhisky.studio for giving this canvas the assertive name.
Glenfarclas Distillery is a Speyside whiskey distillery in Ballindalloch, Scotland.
Glenfarclas translates to valley of green grass. The distillery has been run by its owners, the Grant family, since 1865 when it was purchased by John Grant.

Ardnamurchan - A nature connection whisky

Inspired by a photograph from @scotchwhiskycom
Ardnamurchan Distillery opened in July 2014 and is one of Scotland's most remote distilleries, located on the Ardnamurchan Peninsula just north of the Isle of Mull and south of the Isle of Skye.
This distillery runs on renewable energy to reduce its carbon footprint.
It is powered by both hydroelectric power and a large biomass boiler using wood from the nearby Ardnamurchan Forest.
The boiler provides heat to the malts on the distillery floor.
Drawing the water for its whisky production from springs above the distillery, it uses the nearby Glenmore River as a source of refreshing water.
