I arrived via the beautiful Dava Way from Forres. The distillery was closed but I visited the grounds. Beautifully kept grounds with picnic tables and adequate parking. I will visit again soon when I will be able to enter the visitor center.

The staff were fantastic and the area was very clean and tidy, but the audio equipment was very poor and we found it very hard to decipher what was being said.

A bit of a time capsule and not in a good way. Visiting the distillery was a pretty eery and odd experience. The audio tour equipment is very old and hard to hear, and it's completely self guided. The distillery hasn't been active for a long time and while you can get up close to everything, there's not all that much information besides the method for making whisky. You finish the tour with a video which hasn't been updated since the early 90s at best with a comically green screened Roderick Dhu, and a taste of the similarly named whisky. It's a really average blended whisky - not disgusting but not the kind of whisky you want to taste if you're new to whisky or looking for anything special. Literally the only information we were given about the whisky sample was that you'd feel pretty drunk if you had enough of it. The staff were nice and if there was a better tour it could be good, but there are so many better tours out there. Try and find an active distillery with a tour run by a real person and you'll almost certainly have a much better time of it.
