/year approximately
Inchdairnie Distillery is located in Fife (Lowland)
on the east side of Scotland. The distillery first turned on its wash still and spirit still in 2016 and produced about 2 million litres of alcohol in 2022. We are very pleased to work with them on two specific makes : “Finglassie”, a memorable Single Malt Scotch Whisky letting us exploring the different faces of Peat; and “Strathenry”, a beautiful non-peated Single Malt Scotch Whisky with a delicate and complex aromatic profile.
