About Aultmore
Out on the lonely Foggie Moss near Keith, Aultmore (1895) was long a hidden malt, spoken of by locals and blenders and seldom by anyone else, prized for a clean, grassy, spring-water freshness. One of the Dewar's family (Bacardi).
The Scotch Malt Whisky Society bottles single casks under numeric codes rather than distillery names, so a label reading 73.403 means cask 403 from distillery 73. That distillery is Aultmore, in Speyside. More on Aultmore at Wikipedia.
