Visit guide
Tomatin Distillery
Whisky in Tomatin, Highlands
Is it worth visiting?
A practical option for visitors staying around Inverness or Aviemore, including those using the village bus stop. The Legacy Tour is good value at £20 for a 60-minute tour and three whiskies, and drivers can take their samples away. The £80 Warehouse 6 experience suits visitors who want single cask whisky drawn from the cask. Skip the April–September production pause if seeing the stills working matters, or use the bar for a shorter tasting visit.
