Speyburn 16Y is a unique single malt Scotch whisky from Speyburn that is made using the pure waters of the Granty Burn, giving the whisky an unmistakable smooth and clean character. This exceptional whisky is made with food enjoyment in mind, offering a rich blend of savoury and sweet fruit flavours with notes of vanilla, chocolate and honey, thanks to 16 years of maturation in American bourbon casks. Each sip tells a story of devotion and passion that is reflected in every drop.
Founded in 1897 in the picturesque Speyside region, Speyburn Distillery stands as a symbol of centuries of tradition and craftsmanship. It is distilled and matured using traditional methods that reflect the spirit and richness of Speyside. At Speyburn, they believe in maintaining a rich heritage while embracing new innovations to ensure their whiskies embody the essence of Scotland with every sip.
Speyburn Distillery uses exceptionally pure water from the pristine Granty Burn in a remote Speyside valley, which is key to their whiskies having a naturally refreshing character. Speyburn is the only distillery to have used this water source for over 125 years. The production process begins with selecting quality malted barley from British suppliers and milling it in a 10-tonne mill. This is followed by mashing, where the scrap is mixed with hot water and turned into wort. After fermentation in stainless steel and wooden washers, distillation takes place in three pot stills, producing a light and distinctive spirit. Finally, the spirit is matured in oak casks where it gradually becomes smoother, sweeter and richer in flavour, becoming Speyburn whisky.
