History
Speyside is one of the worlds greatest whisky producing regions and home to many of Scotland’s most famous distilleries. And at its heart lies the small but globally renowned village of Glenlivet.
Historians tell us that the world’s first whisky distillery was founded here over two hundred years ago. Why? Well it seems that our forefathers also recognised the quality of the water which made it a perfect partner for their ‘water of life’.
Though these sources have been jealously guarded through the centuries, we are very lucky to call them home as well. Indeed our water is drawn from the same region that attracted the attention of those pioneers all that time ago.
