Dalwhinnie Distillery behind bars
After a foul arrival in Edinburgh yesterday – 13.5˚C, miserable and wet, we drove up to Inverness today. Dull in Edinburgh this morning, the weather improved dramatically after Perth. It has been a lovely afternoon in Inverness.
Bulk Chivas Regal: between Dalwhinnie and Newtonmore
Just north of Perth – typical Perthshire countryside: verdant green, rolling forested hills
As you start climbing up towards the Pass of Drumochter, which is the highest point on the A9, the verdant Perthside countryside gradullay gives way to a more stark, wilder landscape with few trees and even fewer signs of habitation, espcially close to the top of the Pass.
