Distillery tour, whisky tasting and dinner at the Famous Grouse, Crieff
Nothing has ever been ordinary about Glenturret. Since its origins among the smugglers and illicit stills of the 18th Century, Scotland’s oldest distillery has had a singular life.
Only the Famous Grouse distillery will take you to where whisky matures for up to 30 years.
Whisky booms and prohibition might have ruffled its feathers, but Glenturret weathered it all and these days its doors are open to welcome visitors.
Neil Cameron is the production manager at Glenturret and he’ll show you what makes ‘the water of life’ so special. From choosing barley, through distillation to picking the perfect cask, you will experience the whisky’s journey all the way to the tasting glass.
In the unique surroundings of the Malt Warehouse, amidst casks of maturing whisky, you’ll be sampling the full Famous Grouse Malt range. This is followed by a dinner you’ll really enjoy – 3 sumptuous courses.

Trip to the Falkirk Wheel. The Millennium Link was an ambitious £84.5m project with the objective of restoring navigability across Scotland on the historic Forth & Clyde Canal and Union Canal, providing a corridor of regenerative activity through central Scotland.
A major challenge faced, was to link the Forth and Clyde Canal, which lay 35m (115ft) below the level of the Union Canal. Historically, the two canals had been joined at Falkirk by a flight of 11 locks that stepped down across a distance of 1.5km, but these has been dismantled in 1933, breaking the link.
What was required was a method of connecting these two canals by way of a boat lift. British Waterways were keen to present a visionary solution taking full advantage of the opportunity to create a truly spectacular and fitting structure that would suitably commemorate the Millennium and act as an iconic symbol for years to come.
