Scotland is one of the world’s foremost producers of whisky and has been dominating the world of malt liquor since the distillation process was introduced to the country in the 15^th century. Since then, the pure water of the Highlands has been used to produce some of the most incredible whisky in the world.

Recently, distilleries across the country have become known not only for their incredible aged whiskies, but also their gins.
