Glenfiddich Distillery, located in the picturesque Speyside town of Dufftown, is one of the most famous whisky producers in the world.
Founded in 1887 by William Grant, this family-owned distillery has been crafting its signature single malt Scotch whisky for over a century. Arguably, Glenfiddich is one of the most beloved Scottish whiskies and you can tour the home of it. Glenfiddich is unusual in that the distillery is still family run operating as William Grant & Sons.
Visitors to the distillery can enjoy guided tours that take them through the whisky-making process, from mashing to maturation. The tasting sessions are a highlight, allowing guests to sample a range of their iconic expressions, each showcasing unique flavors and aromas. The distillery also boasts a rich history, with stories of craftsmanship and dedication passed down through generations. Their gift shop at the end also has exclusive whiskies that can only be purchased there.
You can tour the distillery independently but in this area there are guided Speyside whisky tours that take you around so you don't need to drive.
One thing to note, is if you want to enjoy your whisky sampler you can ask to take them away, remember drinking and driving rules are strict in the UK.
