All of the distilleries listed below provide tours which merited the allotment of at least seven out of ten stars, based on my Mark Scheme, and represent all you could wish for in both a tourist attraction and further education in whisky. A visit to one of these will introduce you to people of rare generosity, humour and knowledge, as well as aspects of whisky manufacture and history you will most likely have been unaware of before. Each distillery is linked to its review. Perhaps my specific interests differ from yours so if you are going to follow my recommendations, read each one to ensure it offers the experience to suit you.
