PLOCKTON Gin Experience
An in-depth look at how we shape flavour at Plockton Distillery. This structured tasting takes you through a curated selection of our dry gins and gin liqueurs.

A light mixed serve is included, demonstrating how these spirits are designed to be enjoyed in a longer, more relaxed format.
Lasting around 45 minutes, this experience follows a clear progression from distillation through to finished serve.

PLOCKTON Whisky Experience
A focused tasting exploring how peat, strength, and time shape whisky. This structured session takes you through our whiskies, comparing peated and unpeated styles at a variety of ages and finishes. Tasted side by side, these reveal how flavour, texture, and intensity evolve with both style and strength.
The experience then moves beyond modern whisky, concluding with our interpretation of usquebaugh, a revival of a historic Highland spirit, introducing a richer, spiced profile and a clear departure from the whiskies that come before it.
Lasting around 45 minutes, this is a more in-depth tasting that links contemporary single malt with earlier Highland distilling traditions.
