Distilling Whisky in Scotland

Tuesday, September 01, 2009

This afternoon, I am posting a video clip taken at Tullibardine Distillery in Perthshire, Central Scotland.

Although established as recently as the late 1940s this privately owned little distillery is (a) conveniently situated on the main A9 road and (b) provides fantastic distillery tours with no restriction on photography.

At Tullibardine you get the full experience of of a working distillery with associated smells, steam and activity. Tullibardine is one of the few distilleries in Scotland which allow private investors to purchase a barrel of whisky and leave it to mature in the warehouse for the 10 years or whatever period of time the owner prefers (min 3 years). A barrel costs about GBP1100.00.

The tour at Tullibardine takes visitors through the complete whisky making process-

  • Barley selection
  • Malting
  • Crushing
  • Fermenting
  • Distilling
  • Maturation.
