Description

The Lost Distillery Towiemore is part of the Lost Distillery Company’s collection, where they recreate the profiles of historic Scottish distilleries that are no longer operational. Towiemore Distillery was located in the Speyside region and operated from 1898 to 1931. It was known for producing a lighter, elegant style of whisky, making it popular with whisky blenders. The Lost Distillery Company has worked to bring back the essence of Towiemore’s whisky style through careful research and modern distillation techniques.
