Dalwhinnie malt Distillery tour, near Aviemore, Scotland

A visit to Dalwhinnie, at over 1.073 feet, one of the highest distilleries in the land, is an opportunity to sample the 'Gentle Spirit' of the glen. See the distillers at work, harnessing the snow-fed waters of the Allt an t'Sluic, fresh from their journey through moorland heather, producing a wonderfully full-bodied, smooth and warming malt whisky. Dalwhinnie, in Gaelic 'The meeting place' was where, in the past, drovers from the North and West would meet before driving their cattle onwards to the markets in Crieff and Falkirk.

Children under 8 years are welcome but are not admitted to the production areas.
