Show up with your group, purchase your ticket and you're on your way to learn about the Dewar's brand and the historic Aberfeldy distillery (owned by Dewar's which is owned by Bacardi). Our tour guide was polite and a tad soft-spoken, but still completely knowledgeable about all things whisky-making. After 15 minutes or so in current distillery, you head over to the 100-year-old historic distillery, full of casks and a tasting room. It's here you learn how Dewar's cuts its blends with plenty of grain alcohol (don't they all?) and adds in caramel coloring for consistency in the look of its blends. It's really interesting if you care how your favorite spirit is made. And just before you head back to the bar/cafe/gift shop, you get a dram of 1988 Aberfeldy straight from the cask. Definitely everyone's favorite part of the tour. Glen Cairn glass included -- nice!

We did the tour a step up from the basic one so we could have a souvenir glass to take home & get to do some tasting straight from the barrel. Love the self guided tour and enjoyed the behind the scenes tour even more. Our tour guide was wonderful. After doing our tastings, we enjoyed some of the food there on site. Omg, it was so tasty! The owner was there and chatted with us for a bit. Love the history and the customer service here. We don't have another distillery to compare this to but it was one of our favorite stops on our Scotland trip. :)

The waiter was mega friendly, showing us to our table and taking our drinks order with great efficiency. Schiehallion for me please! While we waited on our food we drank & chatted in this lovely, atmospheric, stone and wood adorned highland bar and the locals were more than willing to lend a hand to snap a group hug photo. We continued to chat and drink and chat... By this time our bellies were more than ready for food, but more chatting and a couple more Schiehallions were to come before sustenance arrived. Have to say the food was pretty standard and to be honest I was a wee bit disappointed, especially since other reviews on other sites were so positive. So that along with the wait were a bit of a pain, however the ambience and waiting/bar guys were fantastic so I'd be willing to give it another go if I'm passing.

The weather was absolutely perfect, and the vibes were great. We ordered fries, salad, humus, and pizza, as well as two beers. The food took almost an hour to get to us, but with the great views and the live music, we really were not too bothered by this. We sipped on our beers and enjoyed the experience while waiting on the food. There was an event of some sort happening at the same time that included food being cooked out in the open, which was fun to watch (even if we couldn't eat it). Highly, highly recommend eating here!

It's such a great atmosphere with a cozy area to eat in front of a wood-burning cast iron stove. It's a very pet friendly place as well. We saw a cute doggie enjoying the warmth inside the bar. We ordered the chicken casserole special. It was good despite the price being a little too high for what it was. I'd expect to have a puff pastry on top of it for that price. Although, it was very tasty even though the presentation was not all that great. It was served with mash potatoes instead of chips. It was good. They have a big variety of local taps. I went with the Jock Pumpkinhead Stout from Loch Lomond Brewery while my husband had the Man O'Hoy from Orkney Brewery. We were very happy with our local brew selections. It was a very nice atmosphere for lunch. If you're a Harry Potter fan, then you may want to take that hike from here to the filming location of Hagrid's Hut. The pathway up to the hut is just a short walk from the inn. The inn itself is kind of unique with the ice ax and ski décor. It reminded me a little of Ketchikan for some reason. Maybe it was the 5 Points of Contact photo that I saw by Peter Daynes. There's also a display of ice axes designed by Hamish MacInnes. Our tour guide in Ketchikan was coincidentally named Hamish. Wow, everything does come around full circle. It all turned out to be a nice lunch experience in the Highlands.

The crowd here is definitely tilted towards tourists, just like out on the streets. That afternoon, the Tennet's Velvet was "off," which I took to mean "out." I asked for a Guinness instead, and the bartender gave me the Extra Cold variety without asking. She must have thought, "Bloody Americans all like their beer at 33 degrees." Well, I prefer the regular variety, thank you very much. Anyway, it was a shame because she was the first smoking-hot bartender that I had found in Scotland. She did give me a smile as I left though.
