Excellent whisky and inclusive experience
Jun 2021 • Couples
We visited Tullibardine as a birthday treat in June ‘21. We had a fantastic time touring the distillery with Gavin as our guide. He struck an excellent balance between knowledge and humour, and promoted an inclusive approach to whisky (drink it how you enjoy it, everyone experiences whisky differently!). We particularly enjoyed getting to nose the different casks and tasting three whiskies at the end of the tour. We couldn’t leave without buying a bottle of the burgundy cask finish - absolutely delicious!

Excellent distillery tour. Made to feel welcome. Would love to revisit and do a tasting experience when the world is back to normal. Considering the current limitations, they put on a good tour and the samples to take away are generous.

Tullibardine Whisky Tour
Sep 2020 • Couples
What a fantastic afternoon we have had today. The whisky tour is brilliant. We met Kevin, who took us round the distillery and provided an interesting, entertaining and informative guide around the place. He also showed us how passionate he was about whisky and why it should be enjoyed. Kevin responded to our questions with care and enthusiasm.
We thoroughly recommend anyone to include this distillery into you visit.
Brilliant.

The Best Scottish experience ever!
Mar 2020 • Couples
As a Scotland’s lover, I can honestly say that this tour was one of the best, if not the best, thing we’ve done f
During the 7 times we’ve been in Edinburgh/Scotland. Booking was super easy with Sabine replying promptly to my emails and Ian, our guide, was an absolute pleasure and, definitely, we couldn’t have asked for anyone better! He was just perfect! We did the “connoisseur tour” and although £40 might seem quite pushy it was extremely worth it! Couldn’t recommend them enough! Top top top of the shelf!

Mar 2020 • Solo
Great location & good informative tour by Viviane,a lot of history on the site which was interesting,tasting area very nice & cosy,only disappointing thing was the size of the tasting drams,very small more like the small hit they give you at the whisky festivals,I’ve done almost 20 Distillery’s & all my other tastings sizes have been the full dram!
I done the connoisseur tour with chocolate,I’d recommend this one!

Great tour at a bargain price
Mar 2020 • Couples
Did the 45 minute tour. Lovely welcoming lady took us round, explaining the processes but adding in some personal experiences as she grew up in the village. Interesting to see a small distillery and to taste some of the whisky. A bargain price (particularly for seniors).

Friendly atmosphere and great tour
Mar 2019 • Couples
We visited so my husband could do the bonded tour. We were met by Gavin who immediately made us feel welcome and introduced my husband to Ian who took him on his tour. I decided not to accompany the tour but was made to feel at home in the seated area and was offered a range of beverages (and chocolate!) while I waited by Gavin. There’s a personal feel to the distillery and it’s clear whisky is a passion rather than a job for the staff. My husband said Ian was very knowledgable and the tour was excellent. After the tasting, my husband chose his favourite dram and purchased a bottle to take home - perfect way to start our Monday morning!

Gavin’s The Man!
Feb 2020
My wife and I took a tour of the distillery on a fairly quiet day. We were made very welcome and were treated to some wonderful whiskies. It was made all the more memorable by our guide Gavin. He gave us a lot of information on the processes involved and the history of the site/distillery but was at pains to ensure we remained interested. It was really easy to do so and his dry sense of humour helped a lot. My wife was driving so it was a nice touch to receive a couple of “tasters” for her to take away.
I would recommend a tour of this distillery and I am going to arrange a return visit with a group of friends soon.

I’m interested in the disparity between the 45 min and 90 min tours; the former is £9 and the latter £30. Is the difference worth it?
How much is the whisky and chocolate tour please

The whisky comes in different prices I was £40 and the tour for me was free due to where I was staying. I can recommend the 1488 whisky beer it was really good.

My sister and 3 others are visiting soon by public transport. They will have light luggage with them. Will it be OK to leave it somewhere safe while they do the tour?

Is there anywhere for my wife to sit with our dog while I do a tour?

If it is a nice day, she could stay outside with the dog or take a walk into the village. Seems very quiet so safe to walk. Didn't notice seats outside but there may be. Tour takes an hour. There is a waiting area inside but not sure if dogs get in or not but you could ask.
