"Located in Wellington in South Africa’s Western Cape, this is Africa’s only commercial whisky distillery and produces internationally recognised labels such as the Three Ships range. Around a 50-minute drive from central Cape Town, its tours provide in-depth insight into whisky crafting and feature a tasting experience paired with five dishes designed to complement the distillery’s aromatic whiskies." - SilverKris

The James Sedgwick Distillery is a must-visit for whiskey lovers! The tour was informative and well-organized, giving a fascinating look at how their award-winning whiskies are crafted. The tasting experience was the highlight—getting to sample a variety of their whiskies while learning about the flavors and history was fantastic. The setting is beautiful, with a relaxed and welcoming vibe that makes the whole experience even better. Highly recommend for anyone who enjoys good whiskey and a bit of South African heritage!

I have visited over 100 distilleries in my life in Taiwan at Kabalen at Santory Japan James in Ireland and over 95 distilleries in Scotland. I think it's really bad. If you want to visit the Binas brand in Wellington, you'll find yourself standing in front of closed doors with the notice Tasting on request.
Do you take the side entrance? You get unfriendly staff who don't give you any information. Spins is really dead for me. It doesn't even taste that bad, but I can't support that.
You can visit a distillery in Scotland at almost any time of year and any time of day, as long as it's light. One is always there. I've never experienced anything like this in Scotland. Therefore only a very bad review on my part, although I have already given many reviews and am aware of the responsibility of getting bad publicity.
