Creating the finest single malt is a dedication that has shaped our history, informs our future and inspires us to choose the risks worth taking.
The Macallan was one of the first distillers in Scotland to be legally licensed. Since then we have built a reputation as one of the world’s leading single malt whiskies. The creation of The Macallan draws on the vital contributing influences of Spain, North America and Scotland - and of their respective natural raw materials, combined with traditional methods and craftsmanship.
The posts on this page are intended for people of legal purchase age for alcohol. Crafted without compromise. Please savour The Macallan responsibly.
Few families have built their own distillery with their own bare hands but that’s exactly how William Grant, with the help of his two daughters and seven sons started writing our story.
At Glendalough Distillery, we craft luxury spirits in the Wicklow Mountains, Ireland, using a progressive blend of traditional techniques and innovative practices.
Our approach is rooted in the natural heritage of our surroundings. Inspired by the majestic landscapes of Wicklow, we aim to capture the unique sights, smells, tastes, and sounds of our home in every spirit we produce.
Our Process & Commitment to Quality:
Wild botanicals are hand-picked daily from the surrounding mountains and delivered to our distillery within hours. Our gin is meticulously slow distilled in small batches, ensuring each batch is uniquely refined through expert, sensory-driven techniques.
We mature our spirits primarily in American white oak and enhance our whiskeys by finishing them in secondary—and occasionally tertiary—casks. By incorporating Irish, Japanese, French, and Spanish oak, we create distinctive flavour profiles that stand out in a competitive market.
Inspired by St. Kevin’s enduring appreciation of nature, our work is a tribute to the land. We pursue meaningful innovation, ensuring our products resonate with the rich natural tapestry of our Glendalough.
At Glendalough Distillery, our commitment to excellence and our deep connection to nature drive us to deliver spirits that not only offer exceptional taste but also tell the story of their origin. We are proud to share our passion and craft with a global audience.
