Itinerary

'The Residency: Tamdhu' offers unique, behind-the-scenes insight into the world of the whisky maker. This was the most sought-after ticket at the world-famous 'Spirit of Speyside Whisky Festival' and we’ve moved it, lock, stock and four outstanding casks, 163-miles south to our award-winning sister distillery, just 30-minutes by train from Edinburgh Waverley and 20-minutes from Glasgow Queen Street. This is a 90-minute whisky experience which includes a short tour of the distillery, followed by an exciting, hands-on activity where you'll produce your very own bottle of single malt whisky to take home. You'll sample four single cask whiskies handpicked from our warehouses in Speyside. You'll be guided through a tutored tasing to understand flavour and each cask’s role in it, and then you'll learn the hidden art of the whisky maker, combining the casks to create your very own Tamdhu Speyside Single Malt Whisky. This is a unique, 'one of one' creation, which you'll bottle at 20cl, with a personalised label and wax seal. The price of the experience includes the 20cl bottle, which is yours to take home.
