Royal Lochnagar

Royal Lochnagar is produced at Lochnagar, Royal Deeside. The first Lochnagar distillery was burnt down in suspicious circumstances in 1824 and a replacement again burnt down in 1841. John Begg built the new Lochnagar in 1845 and the distillery was awarded its Royal Warrant in 1848. This came about when John Begg invited Prince Albert to visit the distillery from the nearby Balmoral, the Queen’s residence in the Highlands. The next day the distillery was visited by Queen Victoria, Prince Albert and their children.

Today Royal Lochnagar is owned by Diageo, and the distillery produces a relatively small amount of whisky, most of which is used in Johnnie Walker black and blue label.

Sweetly perfumed, then lightly firmer, this subtle and woody malt is typical of the highland style. The lingering finish has a fin sandalwood character. Neighbour to the Queens Highland castle, Balmoral, Royal Lochnagar is one of Scotlands smallest distilleries. It has just two exquisite little copper pot-stills. The Lochnagar distillery was established in 1845. It was soon visited by an approving Queen Victoria and Prince Albert and shortly after this became Royal Lochnagar. Royal Lochnagar remains true even today to its simple origins as a farm. Whisky is still made here in stone buildings and even the former stables and corn lofts are put to good use. Spring water flows down to the distillery through the balmoral estate from the lower slopes of Lochnagar, the forbidding summit to the south. The exquisite little copper pot-stills, again amongst the smalles in Scotland, make a most refined malt, fit for all occasions. – Whisky Region – Highland Whisky Region of Scotland – Royal Lochnagar Distillery Supplier: – Less

It stands just beyond the boundaries of Balmoral Castle, at the foot of the majestic peak from which it takes its name and its pure mountain water. A combination of nature's finest ingredients and the Distiller's art produces the distinctive, mellow taste of Royal Lochnagar. Twelve years in oaken casks complete the task that human skill began. This is a whisky you will treasure and enjoy with those who share your appreciation. Queen Victoria is is reputed to have enjoyed this malt and to have used it to lace her claret, thereby ruining two of the world's greatest drinks. She visited the distillery which is at the foot of the mountain of Lochnager (1156m/3789ft), just off the B976 and just over the hill from the Royal family's Scottish home at Balmoral. A man believed originally to have been an illicit whisky-maker established the first legal Lochnagar distillery in 1826 and the present premises were built in 1845. Three years later the Royal family acquired Balmoral. The then owner John Begg recorded that he wrote a note inviting Prince Albert to come and was rewarded with a visit the very next day. Soon afterwards the distillery began to supply the Queen and became known as Royal Lochnagar. Over the years the distillery has been rebuilt three times, most recently in 1967. For a period in the late 1970s and early 1980s the distillery stopped using the royal prefix but this has now been restored. Supplier: – Less
