Tour Highlights

The Glenturret Distillery – Crieff: Begin your day at Scotland’s oldest working distillery, beautifully nestled in the Perthshire hills. Enjoy a private distillery tour and guided tasting, discovering the time-honoured craft behind The Glenturret’s elegant single malts. Learn how copper stills, oak casks, and patient maturation shape the character of each whisky. Optional upgrade to the Lalique Experience, featuring exclusive limited editions and rare cask selections.
Deanston Distillery – Doune: Continue to Deanston Distillery, set in a converted 18th-century cotton mill on the banks of the River Teith. This eco-powered Highland distillery is renowned for its handcrafted small-batch whiskies. Enjoy a guided warehouse tasting with cask-strength samples drawn straight from the barrel — a truly immersive experience.
Fine Dining Lunch Options (optional): Choose one of two exceptional culinary experiences to complement your whisky journey:
– The Lalique Restaurant at The Glenturret – Scotland’s only Two Michelin Star restaurant, where exceptional cuisine meets elegance, artistry, and flavour.
– The Birnam at Gleneagles – Dine in luxury at Gleneagles, Scotland’s world-renowned country estate, with refined Scottish-inspired dishes and impeccable service.
Scenic Drive Through the Trossachs: Between distilleries, relax on a beautifully scenic drive through The Trossachs National Park, often called “The Highlands in miniature.” With its glens, lochs, and mountain views, this is Scotland at its most serene and picturesque.
