Ben Nevis Distillery established in 1825, is one of the oldest
licensed distilleries in Scotland. The distillery is nestled at
the foot of Britain's highest mountain, Ben Nevis, which has a
summit elevation of 4'406 feet above sea level. This imposing
mountain provides an impressive background to a traditional Scottish
craft.
The Visitor's Center
Incorporated within Ben Nevis Distillery is The Legend of the
Dew of Ben Nevis Visitor Centre, built into an old warehouse dating
from 1862 and former bottling hall, which still retains some of
its original features. You will encounter the mythical giant Hector
McDram who will reveal the Legend of the Dew of Ben Nevis in a
specially commissioned audio visual presentation.
After
your experience with Hector, a conducted tour of the production
areas by a trained guide concludes with a complementary 'tasting'.
After your
tour around our distillery why not relax with a refreshment
or if you are hungry, try some of our delicious home cooking
in our coffee shop and restaurant. It will be an unforgetable
treat!
