Distillery Visits

Distillery tours and tastings are the heart of what we do in Scotland.  Each one is different and these slight changes in process make for a very different whisky.

On this tour we will visit Oban, Ben Nevis, Glenfiddich, Balvenie, Glenlivet, Aberlour, Macallan and Dalwhinnie

Unique Excursions

Not only are we getting to visit many of the famous Scotch Malt Whisky distilleries, but we will also visit many cultural and historical sights as well.

A tour of the Edinburgh Castle and St. Giles Cathedral, the Gold Tour at the Scotch Whisky Experience, a tour of the Inverary Castle and many other excursions are included.

Beautiful Scenery

Scotland is such a beautiful country. Whether we are driving along the famous Loch Ness or the rivers and streams that make the great whisky, it is always so amazing to see the lush landscape.

We will take our time on this trip to make sure to breathe in the spirit of Scotland.

    Our @rascalandthorn Water of Life Collaboration Tour continued to Glenglassaugh Distillery. Such great hospitality by Stewart Buchanan, Global Brand Ambassador. A visit to the Sandend Beach, full Distillery Tour and a fabulous tasting and feast to end with. What a great afternoon! The Sandend tasted like the beach!

    We started our 2nd @rascalandthorn Collaboration Whisky Tour with @wateroflifefilm with a visitor to Tormore Distillery in the Speyside Region of Scotland. It was really an incredible visit to the distillery with one of their Senior Distillery Managers, George, who took us through everything in detail. Then off to barrel making, hands on, and a trip to the water source for more drams! And to sample from the spring. A great way to kick off our 2nd Tour with @weedrambigman.
