The Glenmorangie Distillery Co

We’re a huge fan of whiskey, and have done lots of distillery tours over the years. Whilst in the highlands we decided to do the Glen Morangie distillery tour! The tour itself was amazing and really informative. We were taken in areas they don’t normally go to because the warehouse itself wasn’t running at the time. We were allowed to take photos throughout, the only place we couldn’t was the storehouse which is understandable. We learnt a lot about their cask process, distilling and sampling. It was so fascinating! We then got to the tasting and they talked us through each one, as well as the chocolate whiskey too. They offered out drivers drama for anyone who didn’t want to drink the whole sample, or was driving. We then went into the shop and found the prices very reasonable considering they were limited edition and 1 litre bottles. We opted for the 16 year Vindima bottle, which is only available in the distillery or Duty Free, so we will savour it! Had a great time, highly recommend.

We had the more expensive distillery tour and tasting and it was just OK. The tour itself went through all the steps but was quite underwhelming. The no photos policy is nonsense - if anyone wants to copy anything, they can just go on the tour and see what's up, or take photos covertly. It's just annoying for the people on tour. The tasting was good, but more like a "right, have some whiskies, eat some chocolates, bye", not an experience as it should've been. You could tell that the place was recently renovated and it looks great, but that's just not enough. I've been to loads of distillery tours and I'm afraid to say this is one of the least impressive ones, and definitely not worth £65. And the prices in the shop?! Much higher than anywhere else, it's just not worth buying any bottles there.

Lovely whisky… we booked the innovation tour that included sampling 18y, 16y and Signet… our guide was very young… I am sorry, but to spark and transmit the love for whisky you need a certain maturity. I understand these are student jobs but would prefer for the non-standard tours a more seasoned guide. We had to ask for the drivers package, which should be offered actively in a 0 tolerance country. So, overall summary. Great whisky but tour could be improved.

Zoe and Allan led a fantastic tour!!! Thanks Edward for the bonus tasting!! Lovely whisky!! Fantastic drams!!

Alas I did not get to do a tour as I was on my way to Inverness and it was to early in the morning but I did get some photos.

Had a lovely day out at Glenmorangie distillery today. The tour started somewhat slow-ish as the tour guide seemed a but unenthusiastic but got better as the tour went on. The steel room was definitely my favourite. The distillery experience overall was amazing and would highly recommend to anyone in the area.

Had the most incredible time at the Old and Rare whisky tasting. Learned a lot from the drams we sampled—beautiful whiskies, crafted with devotion and skill. Zoe guided us with such passion and depth; these guys really are artisans at their trade! It all set the tone for a perfect day—one that led to our engagement later that evening. Thank you, truly. We’ll be back.

A distillery with a difference. The tour was informative and during it, we discovered that they have a different approach to production than most other Whisky distilleries in Scotland. Very tall stills, use of botanicals, the financial support for oak forests for the barrels and being just three. Nice to hear that they are going back to age statements on many of their releases while other distilleries are moving in the opposite direction.

What a treat to get to tour the distillery of my favorite Scotch! I really appreciated getting to learn the intricate details about how the whisky is crafted. Just be aware, there are no cell phone or camera photos allowed on the tour inside the distillery for safety reasons. After the tour, you get to sample some of the whisky's as well. They will even bottle up the samples for people who are driving so you enjoy it safely at home.

We stopped in at Glenmorangire Distillery on our visit to Scotland. They have a nice presentation on the facility and it makes an enjoyable visit.

I visited Glenmorangie during a trip to the UK in July 2018 because it was a bucket list item of mine to visit a Scotch distillery for Scotch that I liked. Because of the drive from Wales (plus MANY stops), we ended up getting to the distillery 45 minutes before close and after the last tour had departed. We ran into Aiden at the end of one of the tours, and he was amazing to let us join the tour. He was absolutely, beyond-all-expectations amazing to take my wife and I on a private tour and gave us an additional private tasting. Because of Aiden, this trip was more than worth it, and truly lived up to my bucket list expectations!!!! This truly was one of the best experiences of my life, and could not give a higher recommendation. Thank you, Aiden!
