Situated in the town of Pitlochry, Perthshire, in the heart of the Highlands. This whisky forms the heart of the extremely popular Bells Blend. It was founded in 1798, is owned by the mighty Diageo and can produce 2.5 million litres of spirit a year. It is a very pretty distillery and attracts 35,000 visitors a year.
This expression benefits from a lot of sherry cask matured whisky which gives it a rich sherry, toffee nose with rich fruit cakey, raisins and sultanas palate with a great finish.
Tasting Rating Guide
1: Light, good for beginners - an aperitif on a summers day, i.e. Glengoyne, Auchentoshan
2: Also good for beginners but with more depth and body - a little stronger than 1, ie. Glenmorangie, Speyburn
3: A dram for everyone, a little more complex so the palate requires a little more experience, i.e. Cragganmore, Macallan
4: A stronger spirit, a big whisky with lots of character and body, excellent after dinner, i.e. Lagavulin, Laphroaig
