Vineyard Tours in Stirling

Jackton Distillery Tour and Tasting (90 minutes)

Best distillery visit I’ve had so far!

As an avid drinker of Scotch Whisky and one dipping my toes into doing visits at distilleries, Jackton Distillery has set an high bar in touring, production and atmosphere at their distillery! The atmosphere in their bar area and gift shop (where their tours began and ended at) was very welcoming along with its rustic yet elegant decor. I and a friend of mine visited on the 19th to do the Maltings tour of Jackton Distillery with Jethro Rolland (loved it!) but we got the full Monty with the main tour as well! The history of this wee distillery and I implore anyone to have a visit! We had a tour with the lovely Katie O’Brien whom walked us through the stages of producing spirit through their distillery. I liked the milling because we got a hands on experience on breaking down roasted barley and shake to get the perfect consistency for their assembly of tuns. Walking through to fermentation and seeing the well put together assemblies of their distillery with Katie’s wonderful explanation of the process was a delight! All of us on the tour got a chance to smell inside a cask from the chambord cask that Jackton makes use of in their maturation. We got a spy into their bondage warehouse and the oaky smell was homely and lovely, as well the laboratory on site that they use to test and curate their products is very nice inside. And lastly the tasting at the end where we giving the choices of trying their gin, vodka and whisky. Even those that can’t drink whisky got a lovely cocktail with the Raer original blended scotch whisky that changed a few minds! Particularly I loved their Amontillado and PX blended scotch whisky, which I highly recommend everyone to try. They even offer drivers drams for designated drivers to have a taste at home.

Dinner and Private Tour with your Personal Scottish Sommelier

Wonderful Scottish culinary experience

Joanne took us to amazing restaurants where we had elevated versions of classic Scottish dishes. Plus she shared her expertise of whisky over a dram of single malt. Very fun and relaxing and Joanne is a delightful host.
