Tormore
The first new Speyside distillery built in the 20th century and instantly recognisable for its distinctive 1950s modernist architecture (Sir Albert Richardson designed it). Bought by independent bottler Elixir in 2022, which has brought long-overdue attention to a much-underrated Speyside malt.

Glenfiddich
The world’s best-selling single malt, Glenfiddich is where most people’s Scotch journey begins. Founded by William Grant and still family-owned, it remains one of the few distilleries to bottle its own spirit on-site.
The Macallan
The most valuable single malt brand in the world. Famous for sherry-cask maturation and, increasingly, for price inflation. The architecturally-stunning visitor centre is worth a visit on its own merits.
The Glenlivet
The first legal distillery in the parish under the 1823 Excise Act, and one of the largest single malt brands in the world. Glenlivet sits at the centre of Speyside both geographically and historically.
