Overview

Just three miles from the birth place of founder John Dewar, the Aberfeldy Distillery is the only distillery built by the Dewar family.

Also included is the heritage centre offering a unique insight into founders; John Dewar and his sons Tommy and John Alexander. 

You will end the tour in one of our tasting rooms to enjoy a comparative tasting of our Dewar's Blended Scotch and our Aberfeldy Single Malt.
