This wonderful excursion will let you
experience the search for the Holy Grail
and marvel at the distiller’s art when
you visit a Malt Whisky Distillery.
We make our way through the outskirts of
Edinburgh to travel to Rosslyn Chapel, a
fascinating building whose aura of
mystery and magic is known World-wide,
thanks to the popular book and movie
“The Da Vinci Code”. The enigma of
Rosslyn is further enhanced due to it’s
connections with the Knight Templar and
Freemasonary. You can discover more
about the history of this place and
marvel at the intricate carvings during
our visit.
We will make a stop for lunch (not
included) before continuing our scenic
drive through the rolling East Lothian
countryside to the charming village of
Pencaitland where we will visit the
Glenkinchie Malt Whisky Distillery.
The only distillery left in the
Edinburgh area, Glenkinchie is one of
the famous Classic Malts of Scotland. It
is surrounded by the rolling hills and
fresh water burns of the Lammermuir
Hills whose soft waters contribute to
the classic taste of this fine malt
whisky.
On our guided tour we will learn about
traditional distilling methods and get a
behind the scenes look at how Scotland’s
National drink is produced. At the end
of our tour we will have a chance to
taste the end product. Cheers, or
Slainte Mhath (Good health) as we say in
Scotland!
