There's a reason that Scotch whisky is world renowned - it's the best! Sampling Scotland's national drink is a must for visitors, so why not do it right and learn about what you are sampling? Funded by several big distillers, this tour teaches visitors about the history of whiskey, the way it is made, and the economic role the business has played. Though you'll pay a bit more, you can get a tour that allows you to sample five whiskeys and take a bottle home with you, just make sure you take the bus. The experts on hand can explain the aromas and flavors that you'll experience and they'll help you to find your own favorite.
