Whiskey History Clan MacGregor
The unique drink got its name from one of the ancient highland clans of Scotland, famous for its militancy and noble origin.
It is assumed that the ancestor of the MacGregors was a prince – the son of King Alpin, who ruled the country in the XNUMXth century.
The great pedigree was reflected in the clan motto: “Royal is my Race” (“I am from the royal family”). In the XNUMXth century, having fallen out of favor with King James VI, the descendants of the MacGregors were forced to wander and hide their objectionable origin. Few of them managed to survive and save the family name.
In the memory of the people, the great clan was preserved not only as a symbol of disobedience, but also as an example of strong family ties.
It was this motive that prompted the famous Scottish company to name one of their drinks after him: in the Grant family, continuity and family ties have always been highly valued.
The coat of arms, motto and clan name are used by the owners of the distillery with the permission of one of the descendants of the MacGregors, Sir Malcolm.
Manufacturing technology and description of the drink
For the manufacture of Clan MacGregor whiskey, the manufacturer uses 15 of the best malt spirits created in the heart of Speyside and on the vast slopes of the Highlands.
To give the taste of smoothness and softness, selected grain distillates are included in the blend. A 3-year aging in oak barrels completes the process.
