Distillers there had access to a wider selection of grains, meaning there was a different character from the earliest days. A larger market on their doorstep meant that bigger distilleries were built, while the development of trade with England – mainly for spirit to be rectified into gin – resulted in the adoption of new distillation technology, most significantly continuous stills.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWith most blending houses, bottling facilities, and distribution networks also based close to the central belt, it seemed unnecessary to build a grain plant elsewhere. Discovering one in the far north-east of Scotland therefore comes as a bit of a surprise. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 20px;\"\u003eTASTING NOTES\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003csection\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cp\u003eColour: Tuscan Sun\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/section\u003e\u003csection\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cp\u003eNose: Not as sweet as you might have expected.
