Scotland is famous for many things especially its malt whiskies spread out across its lands. Known in Gaelic as “uisge-beatha” (the water of life), the key ingredient is the water and depending what part of Scotland where the distillery process takes place will determine its flavor. At Distincte, we will offer an array of experiences to the different regions of Scotland all designed to meet your palate.
In the region of the Highlands, there are many known brands and some you might not have heard of. One of the most popular brands, Glenmorangie has its own private house which will be our base for your Highlands Malt Experience.
Set amongst the rolling barley fields of Easter Ross, our beloved Highland hideaway, Glenmorangie House, is more of a country house than a hotel. For over 25 years it has welcomed the world to its door, developing an international reputation for Highland hospitality along the way. The house is a magnificent reflection of everything that the word ‘Glenmorangie’ stands for – a retreat to peace and calm, a place for cherished moments.
So, pack your bags and head for the Highlands of Scotland!
