点评:I have been to multiple distilleries and wineries but after this tour I think I am done. I cannot image finding another that could compare in scale and beauty to this distillery.
To start. The staff were extremely passionate. From the folks in the gift shop to Kevin who was our tour guide for the Maltmaster tour
The tour was excellent. Honestly the best tour of any facility of this kind I have been on
To me the cost of the tour is paid by the amazing experience of walking into the warehouse which nailed home to me and my wife the scale of the production here.
Casks dated as far back as 1957 surrounded us. Hundreds and hundreds of ancient and more recent casks all dated and identified were in full view in this vintage building
The final event of the tour which was the tasting and actual mixing of our own blends of whiskey with a sample bottle to take home was a great finish to an amazing experience
The enthusiasm of Kevin, our guide, was nothing short of superlative as we knew he had given this tour hundreds if not thousands of times. His personal knowledge of all things whiskey was astounding. And I'll admit to trying to stump him with a few of my slightly off topic questions. He was brilliant.
My wife and I and our friends who accompanied us had a stunning time
Highly recommended
翻译:我参观过很多酿酒厂和葡萄酒厂,但这次参观之后,我觉得我的酒厂之旅已经圆满了。我实在想不出还有哪家酒厂的规模和美感能与这家酒厂媲美。
首先,工作人员都非常热情。从礼品店的店员到带我们参观麦芽大师专区的导游凯文,每个人都充满热情。
这次参观体验非常棒。说实话,这是我参加过的同类酒厂参观中最棒的一次。
对我来说,参观的费用完全值回票价。走进仓库的那一刻,我和妻子真切地感受到了这里惊人的生产规模。
我们周围摆放着一些年份最早可追溯到1957年的酒桶。在这座古老的建筑里,数百个年代久远和年代较近的酒桶一览无余,每个酒桶都标有日期和名称。
参观的最后一项活动是品鉴威士忌,并亲手调配属于我们自己的威士忌,还能带走一瓶样品酒。这为这段精彩的体验画上了完美的句号。
我们的导游凯文热情洋溢,令人印象深刻。我们知道他已经带团参观过成百上千次了。他对威士忌的了解令人叹为观止。我承认,我故意问了他几个略微跑题的问题,想考考他。他真是太棒了!
我和妻子以及同行的朋友们度过了一段美好的时光。
强烈推荐!
