One of the oldest licensed distilleries in the home of UK whiskey, Ben Nevis Distillery is nestled at the base of the famous mountain. Established in 1825, it has a long history of producing some of the most fully-rounded whiskeys anywhere in the world. Created using just three principal ingredients; water, barley and yeast, the experts also add peat smoke or reek to give the whiskeys their distinct taste. The water is some of the cleanest in the whole of Scotland – flowing directly from the mountain – which ensures a crisp, clear taste.
