The Highland Games of Royal Deeside Blended Scotch
The Highland Games of Royal Deeside Blended Scotch Whisky
A gathering of strength, speed and considerable thirst.
The Highland Games of Royal Deeside have drawn competitors and crowds to the banks of the River Dee for more than 150 years. From the thunder of the caber and the clash of the tug o' war to the sound of the pipes echoing across the games field, the event has become one of Scotland's most celebrated Highland gatherings, bringing together locals and visitors from around the world.
Created to celebrate this proud tradition, The Highland Games of Royal Deeside Blended Scotch Whisky has been carefully curated by The Strong Water Co. as a tribute to the spirit, heritage and camaraderie of the Games.
Bottled on 17th July 2026—a date with personal significance as it marks Mungo Finlayson's son's birthday—this commemorative release is limited to just 297 individually numbered bottles, making it a fitting keepsake for whisky enthusiasts, collectors and anyone with a connection to Royal Deeside.
Crafted to be approachable yet full of character, this blended Scotch whisky offers layers of sweet vanilla, orchard fruits, soft spice and gentle oak, creating an easy-drinking dram that's equally enjoyable after a day at the Games or shared with friends around the table.
