Founded in 1892 by William Grant adjacent to the Glenfiddich Distillery in Dufftown, Speyside, The Balvenie remains one of the few distilleries in Scotland to maintain all five of the traditional crafts in-house: it grows a proportion of its own barley, operates its own floor maltings, employs a team of coopers, maintains a team of coppersmiths, and keeps a dedicated team of skilled distillers. That commitment to craft is not a marketing position but an operational reality, and it informs the character of every expression the distillery produces.
