    All in all very interesting. Learned about the scotch making experience. I little expensive for what you get. Would probably have made out better with a whiskey tasting rather than a whiskey making experience.

  • Fun and informative tasting tour

    We had a great tour with Dan. It is so interesting seeing and hearing about the whole process. I would recommend this tour for the novice whiskey drinker. Cheers!!

    Knowledgeable and engaging host for the tour, variety to the samples provided during it, and a nice environment. Interesting difference to more traditional/longstanding distilleries, not so bound up in history. Also helpful and friendly staff in the shop. Something like being able to keep your glass or having a miniature thrown in to take away would have been the icing on the cake, but very enjoyable experience.

  • Great tour!
