After the success of Cu Dhub, the black whisky made at Speyside for Danish bottler Mac Y, the Speyside Distillery has decided to launch its own captivating version. Beinn Dubh "The Black" is a single malt Scotch whisky crafted by the esteemed Speyside Distillery Co. in the renowned Speyside region of Scotland. This whisky’s name translates to "black mountain," which perfectly epitomizes its deep, dark, and mysterious character. The rich ebony color and intense depth of flavor are achieved through a unique maturation process in oak casks that were charred and toasted.

Beinn Dubh "The Black" is an ideal addition to any whisky enthusiast's collection, offering a distinctively memorable drinking experience.
