Stralochy distillery

Highland Single Malt Scotch Whisky

Stralochy is today a farm and bungalow about a mile north, and well uphill, from the village of Caputh, close to the River Tay. It lies on a watershed with two burns flowing eastwards and westwards, although both eventually turn south into the river.

One source places Stralochy distillery at the hamlet of Straloch in Strathardle, between Pitlochry and Kirkmichae, but, on balance, this is probably incorrect. There is also a Stralochy Farm Hotel in Caputh’s neighbouring village of Murthly, but this is not the distillery site.
