Overview

Take a trip into Whisky paradise on this 1-day Whisky Distillery Tour from Edinburgh. Visit two distilleries; Dewar’s and Glenturret; view stunning scenery across Loch Lubnaig and enjoy a relaxing stop in the village of Aberfeldy on this Scottish Whisky trail.

A comprehensive whisky tour!

Departing Edinburgh, the Ultimate Whisky tour begins with a journey north to Dewar’s Aberfeldy Distillery for the first whisky themed stop of the day. Dewar’s world-renowned crafted Highland Single Malt Aberfeldy whisky has been produced at Aberfeldy Distillery since 1898. You will spend 2 hours here for the Whisky and Chocolate tasting tour; comprising of a full guided tour of the distillery, warehouse and interactive heritage exhibition, and a tasting of Aberfeldy’s 12-year-old single malt whisky, the premium Dewar’s 12-year-old blended Scotch and super-premium Dewar’s 18-year-old blended Scotch, matched with chocolate sourced from a local chocolatier. The tour costs £21,25 for three whisky samples with paired chocolates.

After a Dewar’s Aberfeldy Distillery tour, you will continue to the village of Aberfeldy for lunch. Spend time here exploring its streets while enjoying the scenery. There is plenty of time to grab a bite to eat before the whisky tour continues to Loch Lubnaig, after which you will visit Glenturret Distillery.

Located on the Turret River, just outside Crieff, Glenturret Distillery is Scotland’s oldest working distillery and still hand crafts its whisky using the last remaining hand operated mash tun in Scotland. Here, you can enjoy at tour and tasting at £15.

Then, you will begin your return journey to Edinburgh, passing by the majestic Forth Bridges where there may be time for a photo stop.
