"The exceptionally smooth, clean and fruity taste of Aultmore can be traced to the Foggie Moss. Our water source filters through bracken, gorse and heather purifying the water to the profit of Aultmore’s refined character. Aultmore 12 Years Old is a classic Speyside whisky, aromatic and fragrant in style. Elegant and uncomplicated, grassy and herbal – with notes of rosemary and thyme." "
A Secluded Site once known for smugglers and illicit stills, the Foggie Moss conceals our water's source and filters it through gorse and heather, purifying it to the profit of Aultmore's refined character. Our malted barley has no hint of peat smoke, ensuring the smoothest, cleanest taste.
This rarest of Speyside classics has been distilled in handmade copper pot stills since 1897, yet for over a century it was only sold in limited editions aimed at collectors.
Sometimes a sly taste of Aultmore could be found in a few local bars, but only if you knew to ask for ""a nip of the Buckie Road"".
Often veiled in obscuring mist from the Foggie Moss, the distillery has long been shrouded in mystery. Yet its whisky's exceptional smoothness reveals why industry insiders accorded it a rare Top-Class status-and why the dram of Locals and Buckie Fishermen has been a secret savoured for over 100 winters.
