About Strathisla

Strathisla is built around traditional Speyside production, with water drawn from Broomhill Spring, wooden washbacks and short-necked stills that help create the rich, full-bodied character associated with the distillery. Although Strathisla is bottled as a single malt in its own right, much of its importance comes from the role it plays in Chivas Regal, where it remains the key malt running through the blend.
