Tours & Tastings

Take a tour of the Ardnahoe production facilities with one of our experienced guides.

Tasting Flights

Price : £20-£260 (Adult tickets only, under-18s are not permitted)

Duration : approximately 90 minutes

Ardnahoe Distillery is proud to offer a selection of Ardnahoe single malt releases, as well as a wide range of premium Scottish whisky from our parent company Hunter Laing.

To help you explore the vast offering from our bar, we offer carefully curated tasting flights. Served in 25ml drams on bespoke tasting mats, you can read about each dram while relaxing in our comfortable visitor centre.

Upon arrival you will be taken to a reserved seating area, served drams by a guide, then are able to enjoy your tasting at your own pace & leisure. The duration for this experience is a guideline as you are welcome to stay until our bar is closed.

With views across the Sound of Islay to the Paps of Jura and Isle of Mull, it is a great place to relax with a dram. Driver's dram bottles are provided for this experience upon request.

Ardnahoe Special Releases : £20

Explore three limited-edition Ardnahoe single malts.

Worm tub tasting : £24

Islay Kinship : £110

Four drams of Islay whisky from the Kinship range, aged between 18 and 30 years. These whiskies were released as single-cask bottlings in the Kinship collections to celebrate Fèis Ìle.

Old & Rare : £260
