    We did a few tastings whilst in Scotland, and this was by far the best. The tour host was engaging, entertaining and highly knowledgeable. Also the bar/restaurant is really comfortable and the drink and food menu options yummy!

  12. MARTIN ECOTT (verified owner)

    Excellent tour, however when seeking to purchase goods from the shop no one was Interested in serving so purchased what I needed from the coop on the Isle of Skye for less!!! Also, timing of ferry for foot passengers can be a rush.

    A great experience at a small distillery in a beautiful location. The staff conducting the tour were very engaging, and the tasting at the end of the tour allowed us to taste 2 whiskies and a gin. We were given a full explanation of the flavour profiles of all three and given the opportunity to take measures away (for those driving). Overall a great visit

  34. [email protected] (verified owner)

    From the arrival on the Isle of Raasay, to approaching the distillery, I couldn’t have enjoyed my experience more. The food was amazing. The tour was fun, in-depth, and I really learned more about the distilling process. Thank you for everything.

    Interesting tour and good whisky.

  54. Brian Carpenter (verified owner)

    My wife and I had a lovely time on the Isle of Raasay and the highlight for sure was our tour and tasting at the distillery. Alex, our guide, was very knowledgeable and fun. The Whisky, of course, was phenomenal… we took several bottles back to the US with us. Highly Recommended!!!

  58. Michael Wentzel (verified owner)

    Really great experience with delicious whiskies

  59. Bret (verified owner)

    Jo was our guide and did a FANTASTIC job. She told us about the history of Raasay as well as the distillery. My friend and I decided at the last minute to do a tour, and it was one of the best decisions we made in our Scotland trip. If you are on Skye, take the ~$10 ferry to Raasay, walk to the distillery and enjoy some of the best Scotch with the best views in the whole country. The food was reasonably priced and very high quality as well. Pay for a mixed drink there! You wont regret it!

  60. Paul Ryder (verified owner)

    One of the best distillery tours I’ve been on. Great to spend time in this community focussed distillery. Friendly and informative tour giving a deeper understanding of the uniqueness of Raasay Distilery’s approach to making whisky. Well worth the short ferry trip.

  61. Michael Riley (verified owner)

    Not a Whisky drinker, but love doing tours of distilleries on our travels, this tour was very informative & the staff helpful & passionate

    We bought the Gin, tastes great and you can sip it without tonic if you wish !!

  63. Joakim Ekberg (verified owner)

    Interesting and enjoyable

  64. David parker (verified owner)

    The ferry to Raasay was almost as much fun to do as the tour was! the tour guide on the day was Ellie, she was both Knowledgeable and willing to answer the many questions that were fired at her from the 12+ folk on the tour. I work at many of the big distilleries around Scotland but this was such a nice cosy feel to yours. though the distillery was quite small I have to say it was up there with the best of them! I really liked the fact that the distillery has brought such good work to the island and its great to see the investment that its brought. We were lucky enough to see ,and buy!, the new 5yr release and I’m looking forward to the fire being on and trying it out soon.
    the only complaint I had was that i was driving so couldn’t try out all the drams!
    Top tour, top distillery, lovely folks there in!!
    Keep up the good work and i hope to be back soon.

  65. Ian Birks (verified owner)

    Nice tour, good whiskey tasting. Pity that the ferry arrived over half an hour before the tasting started and there was no possibility to drink coffee , as the cafe opened at same time our tour started. The total tour was quite short and did not include the bottle department . But this was clear when booking.

    Loved the different flavours of the whisky. Great addition to also taste the gin. Wonderful story told by the excellent guide of the distillery. The location is idyllic.

  98. Corry (verified owner)

    We learned not only about the distillery but also about life on the island fabulous.

  99. John (verified owner)

    Not your average distillery tour. Informal, unrushed, and delivered by a highly knowledgeable individual, it imparts much more than just the production process. Island history, effect of the distillery in island life, and so on.

    Highly recommended.

  100. Lynne Griffiths (verified owner)

    Interesting tour. Tour Guide was excellent.

  101. Gordon MacNee (verified owner)

    The whisky was ‘young’ but will grow in flavour as they mature. Great to see some wild experiments including Tequila cask whisky and strong support for the gin drinkers. Lovely setting and friendly people

    Interesting, smoky, but a little bit young whisky

  106. Lucien Lohmann (verified owner)

    It was a wonderful trip to Raasay. We really enjoyed the tour of the distillery. We learned a lot about the island, its people and the still quite young distillery. The whisky was great. Afterwards we explored the island a bit by car. Highly recommended.

    Nice place, interesting but quick visit, Fantastic view, Very friendly staff.

  112. Mr Black (verified owner)

    My wife and I love the isle of raasay and have been quite a few times.

    We went back to the distillery a few weeks ago and did that tour and tasting for a second time and it was even better than the first time we went.

    The tour guide explained the process and how they make the whisky along with a bit of history of that island which was fascinating.

    We got to try two whisky’s and one gin which were all amazing.

    Would highly recommend this

  113. Carmen de Lange (verified owner)

    We thoroughly enjoyed the tour and tasting at Raasay Distillery. We can‚Äôt wait to see where they go with their tasty whisky. Loved the collaborative nature of the place – bringing jobs to the island, providing free feed to the local farmers and using a Skye local chocolatier for the paired tasting.

  114. Divya Rao (verified owner)

    The gin with notes of citrus and coriander was lovely!

  121. Fabio Ronga (verified owner)

    I would have preferredto do without the 20 min guests introduction and spend more time on the tour, which skipped the casks and the bottling process (even if it’s still manual)…

  122. Mr MacLeod (verified owner)

    We enjoyed the tour. Steve the tour guide was friendly and informative. We enjoyed both the whisky and the gin.

    Nice tour of one of the more ‘modest’ distilleries. Stunning set up and lovely location- recommended

  127. Stefan L. (verified owner)

    A very friendly welcome in this small and young distillery. The guide has been telling interesting facts about making whisky in general and particular details about this very small island. You may miss seeing some part of the process like casking and botteling which is done at a different place on the island. But it is definitely worth visiting !
    The tasting was good as well. Two different whiskies (lightly peated and stronger peated) and one gin. Good to experience that it makes sense to add a little bit of water to increase the flavour.
    Strongly recommend!

  128. Felix Doose (verified owner)

    Great Tour in a small, cosy distillery.

  129. mark mcclure (verified owner)

  131. Michael DuVernois (verified owner)

    Great tour of a small, new whiskey distillery. The staff were excellent and clearly dedicated to both the distillery and a vision of improving life on Raasay Island.

  132. Alleyne Ellis (verified owner)

    The Isle of Raasay Distillery tour and tasting was excellent! We have been buying and enjoying the gin and whisky since 2020 and planned this visit as part of our Scotland adventure.
    We enjoyed hearing about the history of Raasay, wider Scottish history and the vision and development of the Distillery. We have been to a few distilleries in our time and this one didn’t disappoint…the seeing the distinctive stills and washbacks actively creating the drink was very interesting.
    We also enjoyed the bar and the views to Skye as we enjoyed a dram after our various walks on the island. We will be back!
    Thank you

  135. M. van Dorst (verified owner)

    Good tour and great tour guide. Nice to see the distillery. Personal we think whisky still lacks character. When Raasay House Hotel is closed no little snacks available, has to be improved. Provision for visitors too minimal.

    Fantastic tour round the small distillery. The tasting experience was great and we continued in the bar afterwards and bought gin and whiskey to take home.
    Jo, the tour guide, was lovely and knowledgeable about the company and processes.
    The ferry trip over was glorious and well worth it to visit Raasay Distillery.

  139. Maria Pelletta (verified owner)

    The distillery building is inviting and I received a very warm welcome. The tour guide was engaging, knowledgeable and fun. It was great that she talked about the island itself, history and geology and gave us the clear message that Raasay whisky is part of the island. It was great.

  140. MARK E. WUEST (verified owner)

    Excellent history of the island and the aspirations for the distillery

  141. Dirk Dreschel (verified owner)

  143. Daniela Mueller (verified owner)

    Great little distillery and very good whiskey. Tour was good but a bit short and unfortunately on weekends there is no production process which would have been interesting to see.

    Great Tour in a small new Distillery. It feels like being part of the family. I missed only one thing – a glimpse of the casks at the end of the Tour. Anyway, it’s a very delicious Whisky as well as a a great Gin!

    Steve was outstanding at explaining everything about the process and the decisions that have been made.

    Love the product / the tour was disappointing / we were only allowed to view from the outside because of an issue in the distillery

    Entertaining and informative tour. Raasay Distillery is a smart operation in a fantastic setting. Whisky is excellent too.

  186. Kevin (verified owner)

    Nice tour with guided tasting.
    Whiskies are still quite young (as is the distillery) but would be looking forward trying some new releases in the years to come.
    Also, a very nice scenery and enthusiastic tour guides :)

    Loved the tour, loved the gin & the whiskey. All highly recommended

  188. Carla Brown (verified owner)

    Nice distillery and informative tour with tasting. If you have time take a walk up to Temptation Hill for great views of Skye
    Check the ferry time table before you book.

  189. Karin Bahr (verified owner)

    Your gin is excellent, the Whisky promising but will probably get better with age. The price is quite high.

    The tour was well worth the money. The guide was very knowledgeable and we both liked how he explained about the history of the island and the link the distillery and islanders have.

    Nice to taste the new whisky and also the gin

  195. Mr. Robin Rawle (verified owner)

    A small distillery on a beautiful island. Excellent whisky, interesting tour well explained. When you visit I’d suggest taking a car over (with a designated driver) because the rest of the island is well worth driving around. I found the whole tour/island experience really pleasant although is rained all day.

    This was a wonderful hour in the very attractive buildings of this new distillery. The staff were friendly and Julian our guide really made the whole experience come alive in a fun, knowledgeable and enjoyable manner. The icing on the cake were views of the Cuillins to enjoy from the windows and Highland Cattle in the field! I would highly recommend this experience, reached by a short ferry journey. I was the driver, so no tasting but the aroma was very good so I had to buy a bottle!

  202. Michael Schmid (verified owner)

    Great tour guide, Steve gave also a lot of additional background information about Rasay

    Excellent tour of the distillery. Highly recommend visiting the island and the distillery for a half day or a day on the ferry from Skye. If possible do the distillery tour first, which takes about an hour including tasting, as they also provide information on the history of the Isle of Raasay then tour the island by car to see some of the sights. Allow at least half day for this so have time to stop and walk at some of the sights.

  217. Mr Ross Boardman (verified owner)

    Super distillery tour in a wonderful location, added adventure is taking the ferry to get there. Tour guide was great.
