Book a Distillery Tour

Well I was glad I got ferry over to Raasay to visit distillery as we had a great tour from a very keen guide and the views are stunning, as is the whisky tasting at end will defiantly return once whisky is ready.

New distillery small and compact. Real niche location and looks promising to produce some real character single malt. Great tour and tasters. Good Luck Isle of Raasay Distillery, I can’t wait to try the finished Raasay product.

Had a wonderful tour of the new distillery when me and some friends were visiting raasay for the weekend. Lovely staff and a very informative tour that we managed to fit in on our way to the ferry. Unfortunately i was driving and couldn’t try any but look forward to getting a taste next time im back.

More than a Distillery Tour! Only 5 mins walk from the ferry terminal so no need to take the car. There is a warm welcome from local staff who are keen to show off the latest attraction to the Island. This is not just for whiskey lovers, it is ideal way to find out a bit about the history of the island and really good for architecture lovers. Without giving too much away the tour starts off with a brief history about the island and the building before moving into a nice shiny contained distillery with magnificent views. Comparing with previous distillery tours it was interesting to hear about a more modern approach and the taste that they are looking to create for their first batch. Finishes off with a tasting of R & B’s ‘while we wait’ range and The Tweedale where it all originated from…. All importantly you take buy a bottle to take home with a decent range of merchandise.

We dropped into the distillery late on Sunday afternoon and had an excellent tour with Fiona. Fiona was fantastic and provided a very relaxed, interesting and informative tour. We would have stayed and chatted longer but unfortunately we had a ferry to catch. Thoroughly recommended.

My husband and I visited this new distillery last month and it was really neat. Our tour was only four people so it kept it cozy and we got to actually go right into the working area near the equipment which was cool. The lady giving the tour was quite nice and gave a nice little history of the island to start which we enjoyed. The whisky tasting at the end was also neat because we got to try not only the while we wait but also two other kinds. Definitely worth checking out if you like scotch.

Iain, an excellent tour with plenty of information. Had to buy a bottle of While you Wait and it proved to be a good buy.

New kid on the block. Excellent new distillery on Raasay. Great tour with Iain,the craic was good and finished witb a couple of nice drams. Sadly no photographs in working area which kind of spoils the craft distillery idea,but probably just being picky.

They say that the number of day trips to Raasay has increased since the distillery opened. Proving the intangible draw that such places have on the tourist masses. This one is a brand new, clean and professional operation. It is making whiskey – but nothing for sale for several years yet. Instead it offers tastings of a whiskey made elsewhere but to the individual specifications of Isle of Raasay. With the intention of creating an approximation of what the local drop will one day be. Very lovely people manning the front desk and doing the tour. With a wealth of info about the island as well as the distillery. I look forward to tasting their own drop one day.
