Hailing from Scotland’s Speyside whisky region, Auchroisk distillery was founded in 1974 by Justerini & Brooks and is located near the hamlet of Mulben. Built to produce single malt whisky for the successful J&B blend, the distillery remains an important part of Diageo's blending operations.
Construction of the distillery began in 1972 following the discovery of Dorie's Well, whose water was found to be well suited to whisky production.
Known for producing a nutty, fruity and lightly spicy spirit, Auchroisk develops honeyed cereal sweetness through ageing. While much of its production is destined for blends, its single malts can reveal great depth. Despite its relatively recent origins, Auchroisk continues to demonstrate the character found amongst Scotland's more established distilleries.
