Established in 1825 and based in Pitlochry, Perthshire, the distillery was traditionally run by three men, but now there are just two. Edradour, meaning “between two rivers” claims to be the smallest distillery in Scotland, producing only eighteen casks each week.
A variety of whiskies are available from the distillery. Only the Edradour 10-year is chill-filtered, a process by which the esters and oils are removed, producing a cleaner look to the whisky, which when chilled or has ice added to it does not turn cloudy.
Also produced for two days in a week is a heavily-peated version of the Edradour called Ballechin. It is named for the former distillery at nearby Ballechin.
