Dalwhinnie Distillery was built in 1897, and is one of the highest working distilleries in Scotland. Their remote location was choosen for the profusion of local peat and its proximity a wonderfully clean water source. They produce a lightly peated style of whisky.

Allt-a-Bhainne Distillery was built in 1975 and has a failry modern design. It is only very occasionally seen as a single malt bottling and more often produces for Blended Malts. The inspiration behind the single malt Scotch whisky was to blend peat and smoky notes with classic Speyside elements.

Auchroisk Distillery was completed as recently as 1974, and much of its distinct character is used to create the signature taste of many blended whiskies. Auchroisk is light, fresh and citrusy; qualities attributed to the water used in production, drawn from a local spring known as Dorie's Well.

BenRiach Distillery was built in 1898 and is located in the 'heart' of Speyside. Their independent ownership allows the distillery to experiment with several interesting wood finishes and it continues to produce whisky from both peated and non-peated malted barley. Fruit is at the heart of the Benriach character, manifesting itself as pears and peaches with an added aromatic top note.

Benrinnes Distillery was first founded sometime in the 1820s built on the edge of Ben Rinnes Mountain. After being destoryed in a flood it was rebuilt in the 1950s. Benrinnes has been adding the sherry-like qualities to blends for over half a century, and its expressions are unpeated.
