A former cotton mill, Deanston Distillery was founded in 1966 and is located near the village of Doune in Perthshire. The distillery is powered by its own hydro turbine on the River Teith, generating energy to supply the site and even export surplus electricity.
Production techniques, including an open-topped mash tun, extended fermentation and slow distillation, play an important role in shaping the spirit. The resulting Highland single malt is known for its signature waxy texture, complemented by honeyed and fruity notes.
We seek out Deanston not only for the quality of its spirit, but also for its signature waxy character. This carries confidently through maturation and rewards exploration in a range of cask styles.
