Deanston Distillery is situated outside the town of Doune, Perthshire, and lies on the banks of the River Teith, which rises in the nearby mountains of the Trossachs. Its origins lie in the historic centre of Scotland, close to Stirling Castle, the Wallace Monument and Bannockburn. The waters of the River Teith are considered to be the purest in Scotland, and are used in the distillation at Deanston.

About 15% of the Deanston's production is marketed as single malt, while the remaining is used in blends - most notably Scottish Leader Blended Scotch Whisky, which is an international award winning blend with a honey rich smooth taste profile.

Deanston is owned by Burn Stewart Distillers Limited. In 1995 Burn Stewart commissioned a gin distillery on the Deanston site making it capable of producing the highest quality distilled London dry gin.
