Production of the 17 Years Old Speyside Single Malt from Craigellachie

The production of the 17 Years Old Speyside Single Malt begins with select ingredients. Barley malt of the highest quality is chosen as the base product. It is first malted and then ground to convert the starch into sugar. The mash is then prepared from the ground barley and water and fermented in large fermentation vessels.

In the next phase, the liquid is distilled in a copper pot still. Through double distillation, an especially fine and light spirit is created, which optimally unfolds the characteristics of the ingredients used. The entire distillation takes place in traditional distilleries that draw on decades of experience. After the distillation process, the whisky matures for more than 17 years in carefully selected oak casks.
