Small dams designed to capture water during wet periods could see distilleries no longer having to close during dry periods.
Researchers at the University of Aberdeen and James Hutton Institute have worked with the Glenlivet distillery in Speyside to introduce environmentally sustainable solutions at Chivas Brothers’ distillery.
Led by PhD student Jessica Fennell, the project will help prevent the closure of the distillery during dry periods, which are predicted to become more frequent due to climate change.
