Whisky Distillery Tour with Serca Tours in Scotland | Guided Tour | Food Tour

Serca Tours invites whisky enthusiasts on a six- to eight-hour journey through Scotland’s iconic whisky-producing regions, combining education, tasting, and scenic driving. This immersive day trip starts from either Glasgow or Edinburgh, sweeping through the rolling landscapes of the Highlands and Lowlands. The tour visits three renowned distilleries: Deanston, Glengoyne, and Auchentoshan, each with its own distinctive heritage and production style.

Deanston Distillery, the first stop, sits on the edge of the Highlands and carries a remarkable history dating back to its origins as a cotton mill in 1785. Here, guests witness traditional craftsmanship that shapes their single malt whiskies, framed by the rugged natural beauty of the nearby River Teith.

Next is Glengoyne Distillery, famous for making whisky in a Highland setting while maturing it just across the Lowland border. This unique geographic interplay impacts the flavor profile, offering a nuanced tasting experience. The surrounding woodlands offer a picturesque backdrop, especially rich with native Scots pine and birch.

A welcome break follows at The Beech Tree Restaurant & Cafe Bar, where lunch refreshes travelers with hearty Scottish fare before the final leg.

The tour concludes at Auchentoshan, notable as the oldest distillery in the Glasgow area and the only Lowland distillery on the route. Auchentoshan’s triple distillation technique creates a smooth, approachable whisky, contrasting with the preceding Highland styles.

Serca Tours elevates whisky tasting from simple sipping to a full sensory journey, giving visitors a grounded appreciation of Scotland’s distilling traditions, cultural history, and the natural landscapes that influence every drop. Whether you’re a seasoned malt fan or a curious first-timer, this carefully curated itinerary stands out as an unforgettable experience in Scotland’s outdoor adventure and tasting scene.
