MM Distillery profile:
I'll admit right away that I'm not a big fan of the malt whisky that is produced at the Speyside distillery. Besides not enjoying their product very much, I dislike the very generic name they chose for their distillery. It's not unlike naming your wine brand 'bourgogne' or 'beaujolais'. Oddly enough, after choosing such a generic name for the distillery they introduced a large number of different brands in the market, like Drumguish, Glentromie and C? Dhub. The Cu Dhub brand in particular .... More on Malt Madness.
