About The Estate
The Macallan Estate
The Macallan Estate sits on the banks of the iconic River Spey, in the region of Speyside in Scotland. We were licenced to distil in 1824, although whisky may have been produced on the property for much longer.
Founded by Alexander Reid, the Distillery is situated on our 485 acre Estate with our historic Easter Elchies House at its heart. We are custodians of this precious land and its inhabitants.
From the wild Atlantic salmon that swim up the River Spey to the red squirrels and pheasants that live in our forests, it is our commitment to ensure that all wildlife, ecology and landscape flourishes on the Estate, supported by our Habitat Management Plan.

Estate Experiences
The River Spey On the Estate
We work together with Atlantic Salmon Trust to help raise awareness and to support vital conservation work on the River Spey and beyond.
A day on the River Spey is supremely special. You feel that you are escaping from everything and truly connecting with nature and with our Distillery completing this stunning landscape, there is no other place in the world capable of drawing so many wonders together.
