Tasting Notes by Dewar's |
Beside
the ancient seaport and Royal Burgh of Banff, in the North
East of Scotland, lies Macduff Distillery on the Banks of
the famous River Deveron. Whisky has been produced in this
area for centuries and church records from the 1700s describe
the local whisky as excellent. The Macduff Distillery produces
the Glen Deveron Single Malt, which is the most easterly of
the soft and rounded Highland Malts. -Dewar's
Macduff Distillery was acquried by the William Lawson Company
in 1972. As such, a majority of the production went to Lawson's
blends. Lawson joined the General Beverage Corporation of
Luxembourg (Martini & Rossi) in 1980 and in 1992, Bacardi
acquired Martini & Rossi. Glen Deveron's producer is John
Dewar & Sons Ltd - a subsidiary of Bacardi Ltd.
