Från Edinburgh: Glenkinchie destilleri & whisky upplevelse
Beskrivning
Vårt äventyr börjar på 22 St Andrew Square i Edinburgh (EH2 1AY), där vi avgår till Glenkinchie Distillery. Landskapet lämnar staden bakom sig och förvandlas till East Lothians böljande gröna kullar och jordbruksmark. Denna pittoreska region, sydost om Edinburgh, är känd för sina pittoreska byar och fridfulla landsbygd, som erbjuder en lugn tillflyktsort. Glenkinchie, som ligger i detta idylliska område som kallas "Garden of Scotland", har frodig jordbruksmark perfekt för odling av korn, en viktig whiskyingrediens. Destilleriet har historiska byggnader, anlagda trädgårdar och en lugn atmosfär som återspeglar dess rika arv. På Flavour Journey Tour & Tasting delar Glenkinchies expertguider med sig av insikter om whiskytillverkning och engagerande berättelser om destilleriets historia och hantverk. Besöket inkluderar tid att utforska butiken, njuta av lunch eller prova fler drinkar innan du åker tillbaka till Edinburgh, vilket garanterar en minnesvärd upplevelse

Resplan
St Andrew Square i Edinburgh är en central och lättillgänglig plats. Det är ett livligt och historiskt torg som ligger i hjärtat av Edinburghs New Town. Torget har ett stort öppet trädgårdsområde, med det höga Melville Monument i centrum, ett framträdande landmärke som gör det lätt att identifiera
Glenkinchie Distillery är ett känt skotskt whiskydestilleri beläget i East Lothian, Skottland, cirka 15 miles sydost om Edinburgh. Det är ett av de sex destillerier som klassas som tillverkare av skotsk låglandswhisky, känd för sin lätta, blommiga och delikata smakprofil. Njut av en uppslukande 90 minuters upplevelse genom destilleriets historia, landskap och traditionella process för whiskytillverkning från fält till glas, utformad för att engagera alla dina sinnen. Det kulminerar i en guidad provning av tre signaturdramer och en liten cocktail i Provsmakningsrummet, som hyllar whiskyns delikata Lowland-karaktär.

The best Whisky experience of my life started from the moment we were picked up at the meeting point. Upon entering the place, the green and fresh aromas of nature fully immersed us in the experience. The hosts were all very friendly and warm, watching over us at all times. The tour started with a bell ring and John (JJ) was excellent at telling us the great story behind this iconic brand. Our happiness was complete. Thank you so much for making us feel special and for allowing us to explore and exceed our expectations.

This was our first tour with Highland Experience tours and it was amazing. Very helpful lady’s at the desk and our tour guide Graham was also very kind and friendly. At the distillery we had the flavour and cask tour and it was absolutely fantastic. Would really recommend this tour. Thankyou Graham and Highland experience! See you next time.

Hi there, Thank you for your kind feedback! We’re so glad to hear that you enjoyed the trip and had a positive experience with your guide Graham. We look forward to seeing you on tour again soon! Kind regards, Terri Highland Experience Tours
How much more Scottish can you get?! Had a wonderful time with our very knowledgeable tour guide Josh who had great stories and facts about Scotland. He was very open to further questions and help make the experience as great as it was. Our tour only took up a fraction of the bus which made it very personable. Josh commented that it was not usually like that, so we were lucky. Note that the distillery might not be the best place to buy scotch. Do some research between the in town shops, grocery stores, and duty free to know what you can get and for how much. Overall great way to experience a lot of Scotland in a single day. Would recommend!
