  CHAPTER ONE LINKWOOD

  Region: Speyside Address: Elgin, Morayshire Founded: 1821
  Linkwood distillery is located in Elgin and sources its water from the Millbuies Loch springs. Adjacent to the distillery lies a scenic reservoir that serves as a habitat for various local wildlife, including ducks and swans.

  The distillery features two stillhouses: Linkwood A, which contains the original two stills but is currently inactive, and Linkwood B, which operates four additional stills.
  When fully matured, Linkwood retains its signature freshness, but its palate develops a rich, viscous texture that lingers on the tongue, giving the whisky a more deliberate presence.
  This unique blend of texture and finesse is what makes it highly sought after by blenders and cherished by single malt enthusiasts alike.
  Its distinctive aroma is achieved through meticulous production: creating crystal-clear wort, using an extended fermentation process, and distilling slowly in pairs of stills, where the spirit stills are larger than the wash stills, ensuring maximum copper interaction for enhanced refinement.

  CHAPTER FOUR GLEN DAILUAINE

  Region: Speyside　Address: Carron, Aberlour　Founded: 1852
  Dailuaine Distillery was founded in 1852 by William Mackenzie, a farmer from the Speyside town of Carron. Its name is derived from the Gaelic phrase “An dail uaine,” meaning “green valley,” a fitting description for its picturesque location amidst the rolling green hills of the Spey Valley.

  After William’s death in 1865, his widow Jane leased the distillery to James Fleming, a banker from nearby Aberlour. In 1879, Jane’s son Thomas partnered with Fleming to establish “Mackenzie & Company.”
  Between 1884 and 1887, they rebuilt and expanded Dailuaine, making it one of the largest distilleries in the Highlands. In 1889, it became the first distillery in Scotland to feature a “pagoda” roof, designed by architect Charles Doig.
  Unfortunately, this iconic structure was lost to a devastating fire in 1917, leading to the distillery’s closure until its reopening in 1920.
  Dailuaine underwent its second major expansion in 1960, increasing its stills from four to six.

  Region: Highland Address: Nairn, Cawdor Founded: 1812
  Royal Brackla earned its prestigious name for a reason. Founded in 1812 by Captain William Fraser of Brackla House on the Cawdor Castle estate, the distillery began production that same year.

  In 1835, it became the first to receive a royal warrant from King William IV, a rare honour shared by only a few distilleries.
  This distinction set it apart in the market, allowing it to proudly adopt the title “Royal” and become known as “The King’s Own Whisky.”
  Royal Brackla operates four pot stills with a distinctive design, blending elements of both tall and Speyside stills. Their spherical lids are less rounded than usual, complemented by long, slender necks.
  This tall neck shape promotes a high level of reflux and maximizes copper contact during distillation. As a result, Royal Brackla’s desired distillery character is fruity, light, and enjoyable, with little grassiness.
