VIP Experiences and Corporate Tours
For those looking for something extra special, our VIP experiences will provide an immersive visit to Glenrinnes. They are perfect for groups of friends, enthusiasts and corporate teams looking for something more adventurous.
The half-day visit starts at our Estate Office, where you will jump in one of our vehicles for a tour of Glenrinnes Organic Estate with our Estate Manager, Alister. You will get a chance to visit the farms and see some of our organic livestock around our beautiful estate, including our pedigree herds of cattle, learning what makes organic farming different in the process. There will even be a chance to head into the deer field and see these magnificent animals up close.
Weather permitting, next you will head up to the top of Ben Rinnes mountain to take in the views and try to spot the eight counties that give Eight Lands its name. We will pack a flask of tea or coffee (your choice!), to enjoy at the top. Sun-kissed or windswept, you will head back down the mountain and arrive at Glenrinnes Distillery to meet our production team. Here you can learn all about Eight Lands Organic Spirits and what makes our award-winning products so special.
Our distillery team will give you a tutored tasting of our vodka and gin as well as a walk-around of our production space so that you can understand the intricacies of our processes and get up close with our locally-made stills. You will enjoy a light and healthy lunch, made with locally sourced ingredients where possible, alongside your choice of gin and tonic or vodka and tonic. Tea and coffee will follow the meal, paired with our “vodka ritual” of frozen vodka and scones.
Everyone that joins one of our tours can enjoy a 10% discount from the distillery shop. Each VIP visitor gets 1 x 5cl “mini” bottle of Eight Lands Organic Gin and 1 x 5cl “mini” bottle of Eight Lands Organic Vodka to take home
