    Deanston Distillery & Visitor Centre

    Set in a truly breathtaking location, Deanston Distillery is the perfect start for your tour. Not only is the whisky fantastic, but the distillery itself also has a fascinating story. The building was originally a cotton mill, before Deanston’s founder was inspired to turn it into a whisky distillery. Using the original lade, the distillery is now self-sufficient by creating its own electricity from the River Teith. Try a dram or two on your tour, then sit back and relax while your driver takes you to the next stop. During peak times, this distillery tour may be unavailable. We'll offer an alternative distillery tour and confirm with you before booking.
