Glen Moray Distillery

The Glen Moray distillery Heritage (formerly Intermediate) tour was a real treat. The new production area is very impressive, and it was interesting to see the twin condensers on the spirit stills - something we hadn't seen before. Sophie was an excellent, friendly and knowledgeable guide and looked after us extremely well during our tasting in Glen Moray house! The distillery exclusives were a very pleasant surprise and although we hadn't planned any purchases, we came away with 3 bottles! Please do not overlook this distillery when visiting Speyside.

Great little spot. Good tour with friendly staff.

Nice tasting afterwards. Paid for the cask strength tasting - a nice line up of unique whisky flavors.

Ended up staying for lunch after the tour and tasting.
We went on a Thursday, it was quite relaxing and there were few people.

This is a famous whisky brand and the distillery is excellent. There are whisky tours, tastings, a nice visiting centre with shop and café. There is a wide-ranging choice of whiskeys in the shop. The port finished and sherry finished whiskeys have most comprehensive palates. These I would definitely recommend for tasting. Our choice was the 21yo portwood finish.

Great tour experience! They took us through the entire process of making their whiskey and we got to go in each building while they were working. They had really good visual props to engage all our senses. They give you 2 samples at the end but we paid for an additional tasting ( totally worth it)! We had the last tour of the day, but I didn't feel like we were rushed out which was nice. I would definitely highly recommend it!

Me any my friends recent visit to Glen Moray Distillery, was outstanding one of the unique experiences. Our guide Rafal, a knowledgeable guy made the tour informative and enjoyable. We explored and discussed the whisky-making process from start to the end of warehouse and his guidance during the tasting session was fantastic. It was wonderful visit for us, we really enjoyed it.

If you're in the area this place is well worth a visit the tour last 1 hour and you get 2 wee drams at the end tho over 18s only lol. Our guide for the day was Andrew he went through the process of making whiskey a very enjoyable tour with a bounce of 2 whiskey at the end as mentioned. Would I recommend most definitely.

I recently had the pleasure of embarking on the Glen Moray distillery tour, and I must say, it was an absolute delight for whisky enthusiasts and curious visitors alike. From start to finish, the experience was nothing short of captivating, offering a fascinating glimpse into the world of whisky production.

The tour began with a warm welcome from the knowledgeable and friendly staff who shared a genuine passion for their craft. Their expertise and enthusiasm shone through as they guided us through the distillery, explaining the intricate processes involved in creating Glen Moray's renowned whiskies. It was truly enlightening to witness the meticulous attention to detail and the artistry that goes into every bottle.

One of the highlights of the tour was exploring the distillery's traditional copper stills. The sight of these magnificent vessels, standing proud and gleaming, was awe-inspiring. Our guide expertly explained how these stills play a crucial role in shaping the distinct flavors and characteristics of Glen Moray whiskies. It was a privilege to gain insight into the craftsmanship that has been honed over generations.

As we walked through the warehouse, the delightful aroma of whisky maturing in oak casks filled the air. The guide shared fascinating anecdotes about the maturation process and how the unique characteristics of the barrels influence the final product. The sensory experience of being surrounded by countless casks, each with its own story to tell, was truly memorable.

Of course, no distillery tour would be complete without a tasting, and Glen Moray did not disappoint. The tasting session allowed us to sample a selection of their exceptional whiskies, showcasing the craftsmanship and dedication that goes into every bottle. The flavors ranged from smooth and mellow to rich and complex, offering a delightful exploration of the distillery's diverse range.

The tour concluded with a visit to the distillery shop, where a wide array of Glen Moray whiskies and related merchandise awaited. The friendly staff provided personalized recommendations based on our preferences, ensuring that we could take a piece of the Glen Moray experience home with us.
