Grower, Corskie Farm
Speyside, Scotland
On the Moray coast in the region of Speyside – ‘the golden triangle’ of Scotch whisky – Corskie Farm stretches over 1,500 hectares, where Iain’s family has cultivated barley for decades.
Aberlour whisky is famous all over the world but its production is truly local. Our fields are less than 20 kilometres from the distillery, flanked by the pure waters of the River Spey.
The land is rich and fertile, yielding the very high quality barley essential for making elegant and expressive whisky. We are part of a local economy, with a sustainable approach to the environment. At the end of the distillation process, the residue of the malted barley is recovered and we use it to feed our livestock.
This strong local link that connects us and our respect for the land are part of the philosophy of Aberlour.
