今天,我们将带您了解威士忌,或者我们更愿意称之为“生命之水”。告别爱丁堡,我们将前往苏格兰最具标志性的观景点之一:福斯桥观景台。这三座桥梁分别于1890年、1964年和2017年开放,尽管风格各异,却奇妙地相得益彰。
我们向西北方向驶去斯特灵,这座古老的城市里,苏格兰的历史回响在古老的街道上回荡。雄伟的斯特灵城堡是这座城市的标志性建筑,从城堡上可以欣赏到周围令人叹为观止的景色。我们停下来拍摄城堡的照片,并思考它见证过的无数战役。之后,我们继续前往格兰高因酒厂,这是一家位于高地、风景如画的酿酒厂。在格兰高因酒厂之旅中,我们将探索大麦、水和酵母如何神奇地转化为威士忌。一边品尝两杯醇厚果香的威士忌,一边了解苏格兰最慢的蒸馏器是如何运作的。接下来,我们将驱车前往风景秀丽的罗蒙湖畔,在巴尔马哈享用美味的酒吧午餐。我们建议您在前往第二家酿酒厂之前,先步行前往俯瞰湖泊的观景点。迪安斯顿酒厂位于泰斯河畔,由一座棉纺厂改造而成,生产一些风味独特的威士忌。通过快速了解蒸馏过程的一些主要部分,您将有机会体验到更佳的品鉴感受。
经过一个轻松的下午,您带着新的发现离开迪安斯顿酿酒厂。威士忌不仅仅是一种饮品,更是一种体验,一种与土地、工艺和历史的联结。这些美好的感受将一路伴您穿过斯特灵和郁郁葱葱的乡村,最终抵达爱丁堡。您大约在下午6点15分返回爱丁堡。
Today, you're going to find out about whisky or as we like to call it, "uisge-beatha"- 'the water of life'. Say goodbye to Edinburgh as we head towards one of Scotland's most iconic viewpoints:
the Forth Bridges Viewpoint. Opened in 1890, 1964, and 2017, these three bridges - despite their differences - oddly complement each other.
We head northwest towards
Stirling, a city where the echoes of Scotland's past resonate through its ancient streets. Dominated by the impressive Stirling Castle, the town offers breathtaking views of the surrounding landscape. We stop for a photo of the castle and ponder over the many battles it has witnessed. We continue our journey to Glengoyne, a Highland distillery with a picturesque setting.
Discover the magical process of turning barley, water, and yeast into whisky on Glengoyne Distillery tour. Learn how the slowest stills in Scotland do their thing whilst savouring two drams of their rich and fruity whisky.
Next, we take a scenic drive to the shores of Loch Lomond for a tasty pub lunch in Balmaha. We recommend a short walk to the viewpoint overlooking the loch before heading towards the second distillery.
Deanston Distillery is a converted cotton mill on the banks of the River Teith that produces some unique whisky flavours. You've got a chance to experience the enhanced tasting with a quick look at some of the main parts of the distillation process.
After a relaxed afternoon, you leave Deanston Distillery with a new discovery. Whisky is not just a drink; it's an experience, a connection to the land, the craftsmanship, and history. Those thoughts will keep you warm all the way past Stirling and the lush countryside to Edinburgh.
You return to Edinburgh at approximately 6.15pm.
