BRAEVAL DISTILLERY
Among the hills of Banffshire in Speyside, along winding single track roads, lies a distillery more remote than most. One of the highest distilleries in Speyside, Braeval sits at 356m above sea level. Crafted among these peaks, away from the well-trodden path, this distillery is operated by a Lone Distiller. Made with the purest water from the Preenie well, two miles deep in the Braes hill. The unique, incredibly tall stills of Braeval, capture only the most delicate flavours, giving this liquid its distinctive notes of tropical fruits.
"Braes of Glenlivet" is the former name of the Braeval distillery, a Scotch whisky distillery in Chapeltown, Banffshire, Scotland. The distillery was founded in 1973 by the Chivas and Glenlivet Group, and is located in the Livet Glen's pastures in Speyside. In 2001, Pernod Ricard bought the distillery and mothballed it in 2002, but it is now in full production. The distillery has a pagoda roof, and is one of the first distilleries in Scotland to be completely automated.
