There is something almost magical about the water in Speyside - and it certainly plays a part in the alchemy which produces some of the world's best whisky. Uisge beatha - Gaelic for the water of life - is the origin of our word “whisky”, and it’s no coincidence that some of the finest Scotch malt whiskies come from Speyside. The whisky industry depends first and foremost on fine, pure water and early distillers found it here, in Speyside. We're privileged to be able to share the same wonderful water.
