Fettercairn Distillery was founded by Alexander Ramsay in 1824 on the edge of Fettercairn village at the foot of the Grampian Mountains within the Highland whisky region. The site was originally a corn mill. This is a malt whisky distillery equipped with four stills and operates a unique system whereby cold water tumbles down the exterior of its two spirit stills contributing to the lighter floral character in Fettercairn malt whisky. Fetercairn malt whisky is available through a number of independent bottlers including Gordon & MacPhail Connoisseurs Choice and Signatory Vintage.
