Dufftown (Pass by)
There is a local saying – Where Rome was built on seven hills, Dufftown was built on seven stills. With the crisp, clear waters of both the River Fiddich and Dullan Water feeding a number of world-famous distilleries, it’s no surprise that this town, with a population of just over 1600, claims the title of ‘Malt Whisky Capital of the World’.
