Whisky Tours
"Too much of anything is bad, but too much of good whiskey is barely enough" (Mark Twain)
Uisge beatha, the "water of life", has been distilled in Scotland for many hundreds of years and "Scotch" is now exported around the world. At Scottish Highland Trails we can put together a Whisky Tour catering to your own personal tastes, whether it be for Lowland, Highland, Speyside or Islay malts - or a mixture of all four! As any whisky connaisseur will tell you, whiskies can vary dramatically from distillery to distillery. So why not explore some of the many distilleries, either on a specific Whisky Tour or as part of your Scotland vacation package.
The Speyside Malt Whisky Trail in Speyside in the Grampian Highlands is the only whisky trail of it's kind in the world, and takes in 7 distilleries plus a cooperage where barrels are made in the traditional way.
Or perhaps your visit to Scotland will coincide with the Spirit of Scotland Malt Whisky Festival? Held in Aberlour every year this event goes from strength to strength and features pretty much everything you can think of that is whisky related, from tastings and tours to art exhibitions and cookery demonstrations. Dates for 2010 are April 29th - May 3rd.
We can also arrange private, tutored whisky tastings with a local expert for individuals or groups.
