Ardtalnaig distillery

Highland single malt Scotch whisky

One of many small licensed distilleries that sprang up in Perthshire over the decades, Ardtalnaig was located in the village of the same name, probably next to the Allt a Chilleine river that flowed into Loch Tay.

The village and local area were sufficiently populated in the 19th century to boast an 80-desk school, although attendance in 1880 was only 30.
