Have
you ever considered a golf tour to Scotland that includes our
other favourite "pastime" - drinking whisky. With our
"Taste of Scotland Tour", Golf Scotland are delighted
to announce that playing golf and sampling whisky makes for a
never-to-be forgotten trip.
Since
the 15th century, besides developing the game of golf, the Scots
have been busy developing a huge range of fine whiskies. After
playing a historic links golf course, you will find a warm welcome
at one of the many distilleries.
The
whisky industry is based upon two products, single malt whisky
and blended whisky (a blend of grain whisky and malt whisky).
Malt whisky accounts for only about 10% of the market but is available
in a fantastic range of distinctive tastes. They are classified
in regional groups, Lowland, Islay, Highland and Speyside. The
largest production area is Speyside, a sub classification of Highland
and well set up for visitors including its famous "Whisky
Trail".
Cardhu,
Dallas Dhu, Glenfarcus, Glenfiddich, Glen Grant, The Glenlivet,
Strathisla & Tamnavulin Distilleries are all on the famous
"whisky trail" with excellent visitor facilities.
