One of the oldest distilleries in Scotland, started life as a farm distillery in 1798 by John Steward and Robert Robertson.

The original name for Blair Athol Distillery was called the 'Aldour'. Named after the Alt Dour burn (stream) from which the distillery draws its pure water. In 1933 Arthur Bell and Sons purchased the distillery. The Mash Tum Bar offers a whisky and cheese pairing, using local Strathearn cheese. The distillery is an easy 1/2 mile walk from Pitlochry town centre on the road into Pitlochry from Perth.
