Smoky and citrus with a long, sweet finish.
In 1897 John Hopkins, after discovering an astonishingly clean source of water deep within Speyside, founded our unique distillery and in the same year, the first barrel of Speyburn whisky was produced in recognition of Queen Victoria's Diamond Jubilee. Over 125 years later we pay tribute to our founder with this exquisitely crafted, delicate smoky single malt scotch whisky in his name.
Colour

Nose
- A gentle smoky dram, with hints of zesty, citrus fruits, sweet honey, butterscotch and vanilla all wrapped together with a slight spicy note.
Taste
- The flavour is bursting with subtle smoke, green apples, toffee and lemons. The sweet finish is zesty and long lasting.
