The Glenturret Distillery Ltd
Scotland's oldest distillery, Glenturret was established in 1775 on the banks of the River Turret. Visitors can see the milling of malt, mashing, fermentation, distillation, and cask filling, followed by a free "wee dram" dispensed at the end of the tour. Guided tours take about 25 minutes and leave at frequent intervals -- sometimes as often as every 10 minutes when there's a demand. This can be followed or preceded by a 20-minute video, The Water of Life, which is presented adjacent to a small museum devoted to the implements of the whisky trade.
