About Scotland Whisky Tours

Your whisky tour in Scotland is about to be designed!

Scotland Whisky Tours is our company – Liz and Marcus’. We’re both incredibly passionate about whisky and Scotland, what a great combination for a job!

We can take your wish list and work out what’s realistic, to ensure you have a relaxed tour. We try to be flexible, our only limits being distillery timings and ferry sailings.

Our guests love our impromptu whisky tastings and daily drams in the car.  It’s true about the Scottish weather – however we say “today’s rain, is tomorrow’s whisky in the making!”

We look forward to showing you our Scotland – all you have to do is get here!

Liz

I’m a Lancashire lass originally but moved to Scotland 36 years ago.  I’m from a hospitality background and lucky to have been in tourism since 1997.

When I first started drinking whisky it was a “hot toddy” (cheap blended whisky, hot water and sugar). Now my passion like Marcus, is for highlands and Speyside whiskies – nice sherry finishes for me.

I can’t stand the smell of peaty whiskies and I’ve totally given up trying! I enjoy Tullibardine (especially the wine finishes), Dailuaine and love a dram of Dalmore King Alexander – I have an expensive taste!

After many years working in London, I returned home to my beloved Scotland rediscovering a passion for whisky. 102 distilleries later, I have extended my whisky knowledge and love sharing stories whilst driving our guests on whisky tours. 

Speyside is my favourite scotch whisky region and you can’t go wrong with a Balvenie, or a Glenfiddich but the Highland malts follow closely. I enjoy a Dalmore on special occasions with Dalwhinnie 15 a firm favourite. My newest discovery is Linkwood, yum!

 

 

A morning Bloody Mary in EdinburghWe have lived in Carnoustie, a golfing town on the east coast of Scotland, for 7 years. It’s an ideal base for meeting guests as we’re just over an hour to Edinburgh.  We love travelling around Scotland and both share a passion for the Isle of Mull, especially Tobermory, with it’s cute wee harbour and colourful houses.

We look forward to working with you on a personal whisky tour, so you return home with plenty of happy (if not hazy), whisky memories.
