What to expect
Your morning begins with quality cheeses and tea at the first site, settling you into the world of craft spirits. You'll then move through three distilleries at a relaxed pace, spending time watching production and tasting spirits at each. The highlight is blending your own whisky—staff guide you through selecting casks and flavours to create something you'll bottle and keep. Lunch arrives mid-afternoon in a loft space surrounded by the working distillery; it's where you'll sit with other visitors and often chat with the makers themselves. Expect to taste five to eight different spirits across the day, with water and food between each pour to cleanse your palate.
