Strathearn Distillery
A small Perthshire distillery that changed the rules about scale in Scottish whisky. Strathearn was one of the first modern micro-distilleries in Scotland, proving that viable whisky could be made at a fraction of the volume of traditional operations. Bought by independent bottler Douglas Laing in 2019, who brought blending expertise and distribution muscle. The whisky is light, fruity, and Highland in character. The combination of a micro-distillery and an independent bottler under one roof is unique in Scotland.

Other highland distilleries
Oban
A tiny two-still distillery sitting right in the middle of the town it’s named after. Oban bridges Highland and West Coast island character — gently smoky, salty, fruity.
The Dalmore
The Highland distillery that appears on more end-of-year gift lists than any other. Dalmore is famous for heavy sherry-cask maturation and extremely serious prices at the top of its range.
Glenmorangie
Home to the tallest stills in Scotland — nearly five metres — which produces a notably light, fragrant spirit. Glenmorangie is one of the best-selling single malts in Scotland full stop.
