About Ben Nevis DistilleryBen Nevis Distillery was established in 1825 by 'Long' John MacDonald, making it one of the oldest (licenced!) distilleries in Scotland. The distillery sits at the foot of the mountain from which it takes its name, and which provides its water, Ben Nevis. At the beginning of the 20th Century the Ben Nevis Distillery joined with a neighbouring distillery, the Nevis Distillery, in a bid to keep up with growing demand for its whisky. Ben Nevis Distillery considers water to be the most important ingredient in its SIngle Malt. Originating as snow or rain (in constant supply in that area!) it passes through peat soil and granite rock on its journey from over 3,000 feet above sea level down to the back door of the distillery.
