Also known as Mortlach, Mòrthlach, Baile Bhainidh, Morthlach

Dufftown ( ) is a burgh in Moray, Scotland. While the town is part of the historic Mortlach parish, the town was established and laid out in the early 19th century as part of a planned new town settlement. The town has several listed 19th century buildings and serves as a regional centre for agriculture, tourism and services. The town is well known for its whisky-based economy, as it produces more whisky than any other town in Scotland and is home to several existing and former distilleries.
