Full
disclosure
that
I
am
not
a
whiskey
drinker
at
all,
my
husband
is,
but
I
joined
him
on
the
tour.
We
purchased
tickets
for
the
Tour
and
Whiskey
pairing
with
chocolate.
It
was
amazing.
Our
guide
Cara
did
a
phenomenal
job
of
being
engaged
and
fun
while
she
walked
us
through
the
distilling
process
and
tasting,
but
she
was
also
very
knowledgeable
and
seemed
to
genuinely
enjoy
her
job.
The
distillery
tour
is
small
but
very
modern
and
welcoming.
The
tasting
consisted
of
five
drams
from
every
area
in
Scotland
that
whiskey
is
distilled
in,
including:
the
Highlands,
Speyside,
the
Lowlands,
Islay,
and
the
surrounding
smaller
islands.
The
whiskies
were
all
distinct,
even
to
an
amateur
like
me,
and
they
were
expertly
paired
with
specialty
chocolates
made
by
a
top
notch
local
confectioner.
For
someone
who
never
drinks
whiskey,
I
thoroughly
enjoyed
the
tour,
as
did
my
husband.
I
even
didn't
mind
drinking
whiskey
when
it
was
paired
with
the
chocolate.
Still
not
my
drink
of
choice
but
overall
a
pleasurable
experience.
We
also
visited
the
Jameson
distillery
less
than
a
week
ago
and
had
a
much
more
memorable
and
positive
experience
here.
I
highly
recommend
the
tour
and
pairing,
especially
if
you're
like
us
and
didn't
have
time
to
drive
out
to
the
countryside.
We
still
received
a
broad
taste
of
the
various
regional
spirit
offerings
in
roughly
90
minutes,
which
is
the
next
best
thing
to
taking
days
to
tour
the
country
in
search
of
distilleries.
