Braes of Glenlivet
Region: Highlands
District: Speyside
Braes of Glenlivet, with its "church-like"
architecture, is a relative newcomer having been built as
recently as 1974. It is located near the community of Chapeltown,
not far from Dufftown, in the heart of Speyside. Utilizing
the most modern technology, all of the production was used
for blending, primarily for Chivas, until recently when some
bottlings showed up in independent bottlings, most notably
Cadenhead and Signatory. It has been reported that this whisky
is to be renamed "Breval" to avoid consumer confusion with
"The Glenlivet. Watch for it.
