Whisky Heritage

Aldrach Cottage sits in front of a barley field that in July and August turns a beautiful golden colour, before being harvested for our distilleries. We also have a display cabinet full of whisky artefacts that emit a wonderful peaty essence, to give the true distilling aroma to the lover of the single malt.
