The Towiemore Distillery was built in 1897 in the parish of Botriphnie just outside of Dufftown where it distilled for just thirty years. In this time it garnered a fine reputation as an excellent pure malt whisky. Owned and supported by renowned whisky entrepreneur Peter Dawson. Dawson was appointed purveyor of Scotch Whisky to Alfonso XIII, the King of Spain, and any bottle produced by Dawson featured the Monarch’s seal. Dawson’s whisky was also selected for the pleasure of the Prince of Wales, later George V, on the maiden voyage of HMS Indomitable to Canada in 1907. In 1910, Captain Scott chose Towiemore as his spirit of choice for his Terra Nova expedition to the South Pole; he took six cases of Towiemore with him. A marriage of 100% aged Single Malt Scotch Whiskies, not chill filtered. A modern interpretation of the legendary Towiemore Distillery. Speyside scotch, apple pie & cream. Closed due to a water supply issue and was the supplier to the King of Spain. ABV: 43% | Bottle Size: 700ml Show more
