Om
Raske fakta: Et av verdens eldste lisensierte destillerier har laget whiskey i over 400 år med vann hentet fra den nærliggende elven Bush. Besøkende finner ofte de kobberdestillene og tradisjonelle trevaskebakkene fascinerende, viktige for den karakteristiske milde smaken.
Høydepunkter: Et høydepunkt skjer under smakingene hvor besøkende kan prøve single malt whiskey modnet i eikefat i over 12 år, akkompagnert av historien om tapte oppskrifter som ble gjenoppdaget på 1920-tallet. De atmosfæriske gamle mursteinslagerhallene fylt med glødende aldrende fat gir en nesten håndgripelig følelse av historie og håndverk.
Insidertips
- Wear comfortable shoes as the tour includes walking over uneven cobblestone floors.
- Bring a camera but avoid using flash indoors to capture the copper stills without reflections.
- Ask the guide about the War of Whiskey, a story unique to the distillery's history.
- Avoid weekends and local holidays to steer clear of larger tour groups and queue times.
