Cardhu Whisky Distillery
Cardhu distillery is to be found south of Elgin in the Speyside region of north east Scotland and dates back to 1824 when it was legally founded by farmer John Cumming although he had started distilling illegally in 1811. Eventually the distillery ownership passed down to his daughter-in-law Elizabeth who was without a doubt the most influencial woman distiller in the history of malt whisky.
The single malt Scotch Whisky produced forms an important component of the Johnnie Walker blends, the world’s most popular and biggest selling blended Scotch Whisky. The gaelic name ‘cardhu’ means black rock and luckily for us some of the production is available as a single malt – and it is very good!
