SCOTCH WHISKY TOUR
Treat your senses to an immersive Scotch Whisky tour like no other.
Whether you are a whisky novice, a seasoned expert or simply want an authentic Scottish experience, the Crafty Distillery Scotch Whisky Tour has something special for you. A warm Galloway welcome awaits you on this behind the scenes tour at one of Scotland’s most innovative distilleries. You will learn how our special Billy&Co single malt scotch whisky pioneered a new approach in the Scottish whisky industry. For the very first time, our fresh thinking was coupled with major scientific exploration and the feedback from hundreds of whisky fans. This pioneering approach carved out a smooth and characterful new make spirit, truly developed with the people for the people.
The tour offers a strong focus on touch, smell and taste to help transport you into the wondrous journey of transforming malted barley into scotch whisky. Your expert guide will carefully explain each stage as you explore our pioneering approach. Experience how our 100% Scottish barley, unique yeast and innovative processes have elevated the possibilities of whisky flavour to create our unique new make spirit.
At the end of the tour, sit back and enjoy the panoramic views over the picturesque Galloway hills while tasting a sample of our Billy&Co new make spirit.
Tour price includes a beautifully presented branded Glencairn glass worth £8.00, and we also cater for vehicle drivers who are welcome to take away a sample to enjoy later.
