At Ballindalloch, on the Craggan Burn, Cragganmore was founded in 1869 by John Smith, who had already managed The Macallan, Glenlivet and Glenfarclas, and who chose the site for its water and for the Strathspey Railway beside it. Its spirit stills are short and unusually flat-topped, which helps give a complex, layered spirit, malty, floral and faintly smoky. Diageo's.
