Ballindalloch Single Malt Whisky:

Ballindalloch Single Malt Whisky:

Ballindalloch Distillery is considered a (very) small distillery. Production capacity has been 100,000 liters of pure alcohol per year in recent years and average fermentation period of 130 hours ensures the stills are filled with very pure wort. The stills are slowly heated, and the boiling point is tightly controlled to ensure that the alcohol vapors are light and pure as they pass over the tops. All this is done to impart maximum flavor to the eventual whisky on a pure base.
The whisky then matures naturally in the finest casks in a warehouse on the estate. Given the production capacity of this small yet highly refined distillery, we will receive few or no other bottlings this year. So, take advantage now of these very first releases, specially crafted for the Benelux.
