Distinct for its use of heavily peated malt, Old Ballantruan is produced at the Tomintoul distillery, located in the Speyside region. This whisky offers a departure from Speyside's typical style, showcasing a bold peat smoke character alongside the region's characteristic smoothness and fruitiness. It's an expression that bridges the gap between Speyside's elegance and the robust peatiness associated with Islay, offering a unique and memorable dram.
