Interesting FactThe name “Old Ballantruan” comes from the nearby Ballantruan spring, the same pure water source used by Tomintoul Distillery, known as the “gentle dram.” But there’s nothing gentle about this one.
Serving SuggestionsBest neat to fully explore its richness. Add a few drops of water if you want to unlock more vanilla and orchard fruit under the smoke. Try it with dark chocolate or smoked almonds.
Distillery BackgroundCrafted at the Tomintoul Distillery, perched high in the Cairngorms National Park, Old Ballantruan is the rebellious sibling of a typically smooth family. While Tomintoul is known for its gentle style, this expression proves they can do bold, smoky, and unforgettable when they choose.
