Robert Burns called Lochlea his home from 1777 until 1784. While he worked hard on the farm in the day, he enjoyed the company of his friends, debating at the Bachelors’ Club in nearby Tarbolton in the evening.

🥃 LINDORES ABBEY DISTILLERY TASTING 🥃

In the 1494 Exchequer Roll, the first ever written mention of whisky being made in Scotland was recorded -

“To Friar John Cor, 8 bolls of Malt, wherewith to make Aqua Vitae for King James IV”.

In 2017, Drew McKenzie Smith decided to bring back whisky making to its original home, by officially opening Lindores Abbey Distillery.

We are so excited to be welcoming Murray Stevenson, UK Sales Manager and Brand Ambassador for Lindores Abbey Distillery to host this tasting evening!

Join us as we sample and learn about six of their expanding range of Single Malt Scotch whiskies. Includes a light buffet.
