When sampling its rich flavour, the discerning palate will note its two main ingredients immediately. The clean fresh taste is the fruit of the blaeberry. This wild plant has covered the mountains and glens of Strathavon and Glenlivet for centuries and complements the strength of the Single Malt it combines with to produce a beautifully balanced drink of Highland character.

Added to these is another mystery ingredient known only to The Marquis of Huntly and his son, The Earl of Aboyne — with whom this liqueur’s fascinating history is forever linked — and which, barely perceptible in itself, gives this bottle its distinction.
