From colours and objects mirroring otheir whisky’s story, to stargazing experiences, delicious food and bespoke bedrooms hinting at Glenmorangie’s flavour.
Visible from Earth, Arcturus is a first-magnitude star in the constellation of Boötes and, accordingly to mythology, hinds can only conceive at the rising of Arcturus. Scottish Highlands luxurious resort The Torridon has named its new handcrafted gin after this powerful star.
Arcturus is distilled in Caithness with Scots lovage, kelp seaweed, rowanberries and blueberries at Britain’s most northerly distillery Dunnet Bay Distillers, producers of Rock Rose Gin and Holy Grass Vodka. Go on a tour of the distillery and meet Elizabeth, the handmade traditional copper pot, who does all the distilling!

Explore more of Caithness and the food and drinks provenance via the NC 500, a 500 mile route for driving or biking around the north coast of Scotland.

The West coast – particularly the area of Ayrshire in the South West which often gets overlooked, is stunning.
