5.00Our visit to Glengoyne Distillery was everything a whisky lover (or whisky‑curious tag‑along), me, could hope for. Nestled at the foot of Dumgoyne, the place already looks like it was designed for postcards—but the real magic came from our tour guide Laura who managed to blend education and comedy as smoothly as Glengoyne blends its malts. We learned about slow distillation, sherry casks, and why Glengoyne proudly refuses to rush anything. Even the science bits were made engaging, thanks to the guide’s knack for turning technical details into something you could easily understand. Each tasting was introduced with just the right mix of history, sensory tips, and playful commentary. By the end, we weren’t just enjoying the whisky—we were appreciating the craft. If you want a whisky experience that’s equal parts educational, entertaining, and downright charming, Glengoyne is a must. You’ll leave with a warm glow, a head full of fun facts, and a newfound respect for the art of making Scottish Whisky.
Great Tour

5.00This is a beautiful distillery! Lovely grounds, and beautiful facilities. The scotch is highest quality! The tour and tasting were excellent. Highly recommended - but it’s considerably out of town from Glasgow and hard to get a cab out. The distillery will help you find transportation. Worth it!
Would absolutely recommend

5.00We attended the distillery as part of our mini moon. It was a fabulous tour! We have visited a few distilleries and the tasting room was the best we’ve been to. Our tour ambassador Zoe was very knowledgable, passionate and cheery. The tasting itself was great. Very nice samples and we even got a discount in the shop for a bottle of whiskey afterwards. Definitely would recommend!!
We had a lovely experience at this whiskey tasting. Whiskey and chocolates were amazing as was our hostess! Highly rec

5.00The tour with tasting done with chocolate. The reception is very friendly and clear explanations are given. Our guide was Alex who personally took the time to get acquainted and give everyone attention. He knew a lot about making the whiskey and gave good explanations on how to drink whiskey now. Overall a great experience!
Personalized and very interesting tour

4.00Nice surprise when I got here. We were alone and Alexander made the visit in French (a plus for me). Nice tasting. Alexander is passionate about what he does, the house he represents and he introduced us to his interesting way of tasting Whisky. Thanks to him James & Delphine Ps: thank you for the Pub address. A place like you like to discover when you come to Scotland (The Clachan).
