MINERAL RICH WATER The water itself comes from the Tarlogie Springs, which rises cheerfully and magically about a mile above the distillery. Set about with pines, the crystal pool is secluded and mysterious, its surface gently troubled by the waters bubbling up from below. These waters once fell as rain on the Hill of Tain, in the shadow of where the springs are discovered, then filtered down through lime and sandstone rocks, gathering precious minerals on the way, before rising again at Tarlogie.

It can take up to one hundred years for the falling rain to re-emerge as spring
water - 'the water of Glenmorangie's life'. So precious is our source of water
that we acquired the entire catchment area of the Spring - some 650 acres.
