Trail66371724957, May 2025
I visited the Aberfeldy Dewar’s Distillery on May 20th for the 4 PM tour, and I must say, it was an absolutely out of the world experience!Although I arrived about 10 minutes late, I was greeted with a warm smile and was thoughtfully offered the chance to watch the introduction video after the tour, which I deeply appreciated. The gentleman at the reception even recognized me by name as I walked in, it's rare to see such attentiveness these days.Craig was our guide, and he was simply outstanding, funny, incredibly knowledgeable, engaging, and full of charm, he’s someone who was born to do this job. His passion for the distillery and storytelling made my first ever distillery tour truly memorable.Living in Perth, I’ve been to Aberfeldy many times and always wanted to visit the distillery, especially being a regular at the Watermill Cafe. Finally doing the tour, and having it exceed every expectation, was special beyond words.This visit was also personally meaningful, as I had just celebrated my 30th birthday on May 17th. Craig made it even more special by surprising me with a complimentary 15ml pour of Aberfeldy 15-year-old whisky. With a funny line, he said, “Drink half of it twice, it’ll make it 30!” It was a lovely, thoughtful touch I’ll always remember.While taking pictures outside, a kind staff member passing by offered to take a group photo for me and my friends, just another example of how every employee here genuinely cares.The warmth and pride of the team make this distillery more than just a business, it’s an emotion. Their passion is contagious, and they make every guest feel like part of something special.I’ve always had my eye on the gold tin box of Aberfeldy 12, and I’ll definitely be returning soon to buy it and have it engraved so I can showcase it proudly back home in India.Thank you to Craig and the entire Dewar’s Aberfeldy team for a truly unforgettable experience!— Tejhashwin Nagendra
