Many Angus cattle worldwide can trace their lineage back to the historic herd that has grazed the fields before Ballindalloch Castle.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAt Ballindalloch, whisky and cattle remain deeply connected. Draff from the distillery helps feed the Estate’s Angus herd, while natural by-products return to the land as part of the Estate’s crop rotation. This circular approach is central to Ballindalloch Distillery's identity as one of the few true single estate distilleries in Scotland and allows it to be the first member outside of North America of the Estate Whisky Alliance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCrafted in collaboration with the Aberdeen-Angus Cattle Society, this limited release brings together two proud pillars of Ballindalloch Estate: pedigree Angus breeding and single malt Scotch whisky. This small distillery rarely releases whisky to the USA. This bottling is a one-off release and currently limited to only 300 bottles for the USA.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e50% ALC\/VOL • 100 PROOF\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eTHE DISTILLERY \u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe history of distilling on the Ballindalloch Estate dates back to the early 1820s when a distillery was built at Delnashaugh, above the junction of the rivers Avon and Spey near where the Delnashaugh Hotel stands today.\u003cbr\u003eIt was under the stewardship of Sir George Macpherson-Grant, the 3rd Baronet, that distilling on the Estate was firmly established. As co-founder of Cragganmore distillery with John Smith in 1869, Sir George was clearly a man for whom distilleries held a special place in his heart.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSir George also enjoyed a close association with Robert Hay, who built Glenfarclas distillery on the North side of the Estate. His final direct involvement with a new distillery was the building of Speyside Distillery in Kingussie in 1896.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt can very much be said that the building of Ballindalloch Distillery is a return to the industry for the Macpherson-Grant family.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eTASTING NOTES\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-f585dda elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"elementor-widget-container\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNose: Fruit salad, ripe banana, and a hint of tangerine\u003cbr\u003ePalate: Vanilla, milk chocolate, and ripe fruit, reminiscent of chocolate-covered raisins\u003cbr\u003eFinish: Long, balanced, and gently drying, with pleasant wood tannins\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSHIPPING \u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e*SHIPPING NOTICE- If possible, please use a business address for shipping.
