点评:!!! Must Visit !!!
We booked the “Barley to Barrels” tour and had the absolute best time! Since it was just the two of us (it was Sunday), Gayle gave us the VIP experience. She took the time to show and explain everything in detail and was happy to answer every question we could come up with.
At the moment, their distillery is closed, which gives you the amazing opportunity to see behind every machine and process, explore every nook and cranny, and best of all, take photos of everything — even their cellar, which most distilleries don’t allow.
Since we promised Gayle to include “Shmokay” in our review, here it comes! After we took a walk through their cellar, learning about virgins (casks 😉), different types of finishes, and woods from all over the world, we had the pleasure of ending our experience with a tasting of five drams. We worked our way from the base selection through some experiments to a Shmokay finish, which may or may not have ended in some confusion about what to include in our driver’s package.
Afterwards, Gayle took the time to provide us with a list of restaurants and bars to continue our tour, and we were able to end the day on a high — having dinner in one of the finest places you could find in Elgin (for this secret, however, you’ll have to take the tour!).
All in all, an absolute highlight of our trip to Scotland, and we promise to come back for more!

我们预订了“从大麦到酒桶”之旅,度过了一段非常美好的时光!因为只有我们两个人(那天是星期天),Gayle 给了我们 VIP 级的体验。她花时间详细地展示和讲解了所有细节,并乐于解答我们提出的每一个问题。
目前,他们的酿酒厂已经关闭,这给了我们一个绝佳的机会,可以参观每一台机器和每一道工序,探索每一个角落,最棒的是,可以拍下所有东西——甚至是他们的酒窖,而大多数酿酒厂是不允许拍照的。
既然我们答应 Gayle 会把“Shmokay”纳入我们的评论,现在就来吧!我们参观了他们的酒窖,了解了各种原酒(橡木桶😉)、不同类型的收尾以及来自世界各地的木材,之后,我们很荣幸地以五款威士忌的品鉴结束了我们的体验。我们从基础选择开始,经过一番尝试,最终以 Shmokay 为终点,这或许最终让我们对司机套餐中应该包含哪些内容感到困惑。
之后,Gayle 抽出时间给我们提供了一份餐厅和酒吧的清单,让我们可以继续我们的旅程。我们以极致的享受结束了这一天——在埃尔金最棒的餐厅之一享用了晚餐(不过,想要知道这个秘密,你得参加旅行团!)。
总而言之,这是我们苏格兰之旅的一大亮点,我们保证还会再来!
