"A fascinating examination of the whisky-making process."
Overview
Bunnahabhain Distillery Visitor Centre is ideal for whisky fans or those who love a bit of applied science. The tour guides do a great job of delivering information in an engaging and personable way, leaving you with a better knowledge of the distillery’s history, brand heritage and processes. The content covers all key stages of whisky production, from malting and fermentation to distillation and maturation. Being able to see the equipment and production areas is great for a deeper understanding, and as always it all ends with a whisky tasting, unless you're driving of course.
