Mary was fantastic and she explained the process and answers our questions well. Nice fun tour. I like the fact that they took care of drivers and let them have a takeaway whiskey. We booked the first of the day. We had a knowledgeable, multilingual and friendly guide. After our tasting, we ordered a coffee and some desert in the beautiful café. And it's only as we were leaving that we noticed the car charging stations. Very nice experience, we had the flight of the month, called "home of the hills". My favourite was obviously the Singleton! The shop is really big, with a lot of and gadgets, but the prices for them are too high 😕 Fantastic location and a must-see on your list of places to visit. Everything is well organized and thought out in terms of trips. Our wonderful guide, Beardy Brian — you're BRILLIANT at what you do!! — he made sure that we have a great time while explaining the production process in a clear and interesting way! At the end, Singelton products was a nice – a big credit for considering the needs of children and drivers! The idea of... (I won't say, you have to check it yourself) - extra!!! It was super a pleasant for everyone, I would definitely recommend it. In August, we embarked on an unforgettable visit to a remarkable Scotch distillery nestled on the outskirts of the charming city of Inverness. We arrived without pre-booking our tickets, uncertain of our arrival timing after our scenic NC500 journey. To our delight, there were tickets available for the next scheduled session when we reached the distillery. The was nothing short of extraordinary, appealing even to those who may not consider themselves Scotch aficionados. This distillery boasts a rich and storied history, with its roots tracing back to 1838, all of which was expertly narrated by a knowledgeable team member who guided us through the premises. The began with us exploring the expansive and awe-inspiring cellar, which housed an astonishing collection of oak casks, each brimming with the potential for exceptional flavors and aromas. We were also introduced to massive malting vessels, where the grains are transformed, and encountered the famed Copper Dog. One of the captivating details we learned about was the local sourcing of the key ingredients: the pristine water and grains used in their production. The water, crystal clear and pure, flows from a nearby reservoir, marked by a towering wind turbine that stands sentinel in the distance, symbolizing the marriage of tradition and sustainable practices. As we neared the conclusion of our tour, we were treated to a delightful session that truly elevated our visit. Each sip was a celebration of craftsmanship, allowing us to savor the complex flavors and aromas that make this distillery’s offerings so exceptional. It was a fitting end to a remarkable journey into the world of Scotch whiskey. We had the pleasure of joining a at The Singleton Distillery in Glen Ord, and it was truly one of the highlights of our time in Scotland. Our guide, Adam, made the entire outstanding from start to finish. The was beautifully structured – not only did we get a fascinating insight into the history and craftsmanship behind Singleton whisky, but Adam also managed to explain the complex distilling process in a way that felt engaging, approachable, and easy to follow. He struck the perfect balance between sharing detailed knowledge and keeping the atmosphere light and enjoyable. What stood out most to us was Adam’s passion and enthusiasm. You could tell he truly loves what he does, and that energy was infectious – it made the not just informative, but also very personal and memorable. The session was an absolute treat. Each was introduced with care and context, allowing us to really appreciate the different flavor profiles and nuances. It wasn’t just a tasting, it felt like a journey through the character and soul of Singleton whiskies. Each is slowly batch-distilled for a smooth, balanced taste and aged in ex-Bourbon and ex-Sherry casks, creating fruity, sweet, and spicy notes. We left with a much deeper appreciation for whisky, for the traditions of Glen Ord, and of course with some good memories to take home. We can only recommend this to anyone visiting the Highlands – whether you are new to or already a connoisseur, this will leave a lasting impression. I was not initially planning to go here but I'm glad I did. The was excellent and our Adam was fantastic. He has extensive knowledge about the making process and about in general. The was very informative and interesting. The retail area is really good with friendly service and good food and tea. Highly recommend a visit here. A fantastic location and a must have on your list of places to visit. Everything is well organised and thought through about the tours. Our lovely guide, Beardy Brian, ensured we had a great time, whilst explaining the process of production in a clear and interesting fashion! Afterwards of Glen Ord product's was an enjoyable (and huge respect for taking kids and drivers into consideration!). Overall, a fun for everyone, definitely recommended.
