Part of Longmorn’s success was the result of the Distillery location. It was on the fringes of the main barley growing area of the Laich o’Moray; and there were plentiful supplies of peat available from the ‘foggie loans’ of the nearby Mannoch Hill. This part of Scotland has a micro-climate and fertile soil perfect for growing barley, so it is no surprise that the distillery was built close to where the finest ingredients possible could be found. The motive power for the distillery was originally provided entirely by a large water wheel that is still there today, though no longer in use.
