Distillery Description
True to our roots, at Deanston we still value handcrafted techniques. What makes our distillery special goes far beyond its bricks and mortar. For us, it’s about our people and the traditional methods they use to craft a range of single malts which command respect and pay tribute to our rich heritage.
The process begins with water from the River Teith, which flows over granite, making it very soft and perfect for making whisky. With help from the original lade used by the mill, the water is directed towards the distillery for use in production and powering the turbines.
We only ever use Scottish grown crops, meaning all of our malted barley is sourced from local farmers, before being milled into grist and tested by hand, to ensure the perfect mix of quick and slow natural sugars.
Our whisky is twice distilled – first, in a wash still and then in a spirit still where it separates into three sections: the head, the tail and the ‘heart of the run’. The ‘heart’ is the part that interests us; this is our ‘middle’ or ‘spirit’ cut. The heads and tails will be used in the next distillation.
