Ruthven Barracks

Ruthven Barracks were built by George II’s government in the early 1700s after the failed Jacobite uprising of 1715. The troops stationed there were to maintain law and order and enforce the Disarming Act of 1716. The barracks saw action twice. A 300-strong Jacobite attack failed to take the barracks in 1745, but a more heavily-armed attack the next year forced the barracks’ surrender. The Jacobites rallied here after their defeat at Culloden before conceding.

The Scottish Highlands. Full of stories, of open arms and warm welcomes. Full of hidden depths and of the love of families spanning generations. Full of what matters. This is our home. This is us. This is our whisky. Each one a memento of a passion and knowledge that only comes from making whisky over several lifetimes. Each one a toast to the very landscape in which we live, to our community bonded by shared purpose and in everything we do. Quite simply, our whiskies reflect us. Always have and always will. Tomatin. To what matters.
