What to expect
Glengoyne Distillery
Your experience will begin with an in-depth guided tour of Glengoyne Distillery and No.1 Warehouse. You will then take your seat in the Sample Room of the Distillery Manager's House for a hands-on whisky making experience where you will create your own single malt, and then bottle it to take home. The Malt Master plays a crucial role in making Glengoyne whisky, balancing the flavours from different casks. Displayed before you will be a selection of cask strength whiskies hand-selected from the Glengoyne warehouse. You’ll see the difference in colour immediately; between the American oak and European, and between the previous fill of sherry or bourbon. A taste of each, and you assume the role of the Malt Master; adding a little from a bourbon cask here, bringing out a touch more sherry wood there. Like a true Malt Master, you’ll taste and tinker your way to a unique cask strength, un-chillfiltered Glengoyne Highland Single Malt. It’s a one-off creation, presented to you in a 200ml Glengoyne bottle with a record of your recipe. This experience is only suitable for adults aged 18-years and over. Under 18s will not be admitted
