The Tomintoul Distillery team was at the Tomintoul Motorcycle Gathering event at the weekend, which brings together people from near and far, some great bikes and ofcourse some exceptional single malt whisky.
Each year the event raises money for various charities including some local ones, so we are delighted to sponsor it and be a part such a great day.
Hope to see you all again next year. Slainte!
We are delighted to have won a Gold Medal from the Meiningers International Spirits Awards 2018 for our Old Ballantruan 15 Year Old.
This prestigious awards recognises excellence in all categories and each expression is tasted by a panel of 60 experts before a decision is made.
Old Ballantruan 15 Year Old is a mature peated Scotch whisky of exceptional quality, which has a lovely smokiness tempered by toffee-sweetness and gentle oaky spice.
It's an exciting time at our Glencadam Distillery in Brechin, as we prepare for our new spirit still.
Our current one has been working away creating our light, delicate spirit since the 1950s, so the team are really excited about this change at the distillery.
The new still is being made by Forsyths in Rothes, who have been expertly hand crafting stills since 1890. Each one really is a work of art and is essentially still made in the same way as when the company started back in the 1800s.
Over the next few weeks we will keep up to date with the progress of our new still and it's final journey to be installed at the distillery. In the meantime the picture below, sent to us by the team at Forsyth's, shows how it is looking at the moment.
Angus Dundee proudly announces the release of a rare Glencadam 13 year old expression.
Rare because in the Autumn of the year 2000, Glencadam distillery fell silent. This silence became a deep sleep for three years until its joyous “Re-Awakening” in the Autumn of 2003. This rare, 13 years old limited edition from the re-start of distillation truly represents and commemorates “The Re-Awakening” of Glencadam Highland Single Malt Scotch Whisky.
Noted to have the colour of shimmering gold, a nose of floral malty sweetness and subtle vanilla, this rare release is definitely lining up to be a corker!
Starting of the Year with some fabulous news!
Glencadam Origin has won Gold at the 'FIFTY BEST' Awards for 2017!!
This weekend Tomintoul, Glencadam & Old Ballantruan whisky were present at the BBC Good Food Show Winter. The event took place at the NEC (National Exhibition Centre) in Birmingham, home to the largest Exhibition centre in the UK with thousands of visitors each year. The four day show involved meeting hundreds of people who visited our stand to chat with the team and sample our extensive range of single malt Scotch whiskies.
One of the things we love most about these shows is meeting people and introducing them to our whiskies. We have an extensive portfolio of multi-award winning single malt Scotch whiskies and each brand offers a very unique yet, delicious experience to suit anyone (over the age of 18). From our utterly smooth Tomintoul whiskies to our rich and fruity Glencadam Whiskies, including one of a handful of peated Speyside single malt whiskies - the Old Ballantruan. This year we attended several BBC Good Food shows across the country with the last show of the year which took place this weekend. We had a splendid time meeting everyone who joined us and we look forward to more shows in 2017!
On stand - Tomintoul & Glencadam Single Malt Whiskies. We believe they'd make the perfect Christmas gift for any whisky lover or someone who wants to try something new.

The perfect stocking filler this Christmas! #Tomintoul
Something extra special - Our Tomintoul Five Decades.
It's been a great year and we'd like to thank everyone who joined us at all the shows this year. We look forward to 2017 with more exciting things to come!
