    We had a basic tour with Charlie and really enjoyed it! Toured the distillery and warehouse and then did a tasting of four award-winning Whiskies - all very different in character and taste. You also get a free wee whisky glass to take home and a free mini bottle for those driving who can’t participate in the tasting. Still very young distillery (2013), so visiting facilities are a bit basic (i.e. no seating area for tasting which would have been nice). However, still worth a visit!!

    Very good tour, all staff friendly, all questions answered. We've learned a lot about the whole process of production and history of distillery. Very good whisky, at least that's what I've been told by my partner as I was driving😁 We did get a bottle so I will have a chance to try it once we get home. Well worth visiting!! And do treat yourself to a bottle... or two😁

    The staff was extremely friendly and patiently answered all questions. Even though the distillery is small and modern, the tour was definitely worth it. It is interesting to see how efficiently everything is housed in such a small space. You also get a look inside the warehouses. In addition, some interesting historical information is shared on the tour. The tasting at the end is great. You have the opportunity to taste five different whiskies. Very likeable: no visitor centre for prestige purposes, but simply a small distillery. Definitely worth a visit!

    Lovely small distillery run by a passionate few which shows in the whisky and the tours. Our tour guide was extremely good and knowledgeable. The whisky is superb and rivals that of larger companies. I love their passion and the thought that goes behind each bottle. (Of which we came away with a few!) The tasting session was also superb, & if you are unfortunate enough to be the designated driver you get samples to try later. Thank you for a fabulous visit! It is well worth a stop by if you are looking for a good distillery tour and great tasting whisky in the Scottish Highlands.

    Delighted to have finally made it to visit the Wolfburn Distillery, a stunning example of independent whisky production. Wilma was very welcoming and great craic, lots of excellent history and background to this great brand, wee stories, and detail on the bottlings. Sampled a few, bought a few...left a very happy fan. Great whisky, great merch, bought the Wolfburn Batch 458 lightly peated...and a few other bits and pieces.

    Absolutely fantastic tour led by Wilma, worlds best guide and so knowledgeable on the process and equipment within the distillery. Beautiful place inside and out, would love to come again if ever in Scotland again!!

    My friends and I arranged a tour on a Saturday. Wilma not only made an extra effort to fit us in but also gave us a superb tour. She explained everything thoroughly and you could tell that she knew everything inside and out. She was kind and funny, and we had a blast. This small, locally-operated distillery is a must see if you’re near Thurso, SCO. -Lauryn, Erica, and Michelle

    Amazing experience, don't hesitate to stop by. We're lucky enough to have the tour just for the two of us. Everything was thoroughly explained by the lovely host Wilma, the smell in the barrel storage was something else ❤️. Tasting was great, only based on my friend's opinion as I was the driver 😅 Thanks again, Lukasz and Mateusz!
