The Tomintoul distillery was established in 1964, in the prestigious area of Glenlivet, near the River Avon in Speyside, and is named after one of the highest villages in the Highlands (350 m). Founded by the independent bottlers W&S Strong & Co and Hay & MacLeod & Co, it then passed into the hands of Whyte & Mackay, before being bought by Angus Dundee.

A whisky from the Tomintoul distillery (Speyside), distilled in 1967 and bottled at 40% in 1985 after 18 years of maturation. Tomintoul, created by the merger of two Glasgow brokers, began production in 1965, just 2 years before this whisky was distilled. A bottling from A.B.C. Ltd in Dundalk, Ireland.
