Tour Jackton Distillery to see a family farm become a working Lowland distillery—follow the process from grain to glass, then taste RAER’s Original and three sherry cask expressions.
More ways to explore the area's outdoor wonders
A low winter sun slides across the corrugated roof of a converted family farm as visitors gather at Jackton Distillery, where copper stills and weathered oak casks occupy the same fields that raised cattle and barley for generations. The atmosphere is practical and hands-on: the millroom’s grain dust hangs in shafts of light, the stillroom hums with warm vapour, and the tasting bar offers a chance to compare a clear, clean spirit with richly sherried expressions that have slept in first-fill casks.
