welcome to the Borders Distillery

Protected: Distiller For A Day

Step behind-the-scenes

Become a distiller for a day; step beyond the visitor route and into the heart of the distillery with this exclusive, hands-on experience.

Spend a full day working alongside our expert distilling team as you are guided through the complete whisky-making journey from raw grain to cask.

This immersive experience offers rare, practical involvement in every key stage of production, including milling and mashing, distillation, warehousing, and sampling straight from cask. Guests are encouraged to get fully involved, ask questions, and truly feel part of the distilling process from beginning to end.

The day culminates with the opportunity to fill your own cask on the production floor. Your ticket price is redeemable against a private 1837 cask, allowing you to lay down a personal piece of the distillery’s future.

To mark the occasion, guests will be kitted out in official distillery uniform, enjoy lunch with the team, and receive a framed Distiller’s Certificate along with a curated goodie bag to take home.

This is an unfiltered, behind-the-scenes distilling experience crafted for those who want to go deeper.
