Sherramore Lodge Day 6 - 10/4/08


Time to tour a distillery. Mitch took us to Dalwhinnie for our distillery tour. He called this a lady’s whiskey because it is more smooth and flavored with honey and citrus. Dalwhinnie was established in 1898 and is set in the Grampian mountains. It is located at the highest altitude and has the coldest temperature of any other distillery. The whiskey is made using the old techniques, pine tubs, copper stills and copper cooling tubes. Photos were taken from Dalwhinnie's website since we couldn't take them with our cameras.

Afterwards, we went to The Glen Hotel in Newtonmore for lunch. This photo is of Doug, Diane and Debbie:

Came back to the lodge, packed, paid Mike for the extra fees, took pictures of the antlers and passed out tips. Below is a picture of the antlers:
