The Mac Hamish distillery lies on the remote Highland Glen, which has preserved much of its historical character. Original houses, built of stones taken from the bed of the Spey, mingle with more recent buildings and landscaped public gardens. Mac Hamish's spectacular setting on the banks of the Spey makes it easy to see what made it such an attractive place to found a community and a distillery.

The pack horse bridge over the river spey and the remains of the famous Aberlour Orphanage can still be seen in the village, which makes an ideal base for walking, fishing and exploring in the surrounding countryside. Mac Hamish is very much a working distillery and is not yet open to visitors, however we hope to hold distellery tours in the year 2003.
