The Singleton
Region: Highland
District: Speyside
The Singleton single malt is distilled at Auchroisk
Distillery. The malt was given the "Singleton" name because
the anticipated difficulty, on the part of the consumer, of
pronouncing the name of the distillery. Auchroisk, pronounced
"orth-rusk," means "ford across the red stream" in Gaelic.
It was opened in 1974 and is located between Aberlour and
Keith on Highway A95. The distillery is relatively new, but
has amassed numerous awards, both for its produce and its
facilities. All the Singleton produce is used exclusively
for the single malt consumer and has been available since
1986.
