Located in Ballindalloch, Speyside, Cragganmore Distillery was founded by John Smith and benefited from the opening of the Strathspey Railway in 1863, which improved access to the area. Before establishing Cragganmore, Smith managed several distilleries, including Macallan, Glenlivet and Glenfarclas. The distillery is known for its distinctive flat-topped stills, designed to promote reflux during distillation and contribute to the character of its single malt.
