Every year thousands of ELSBURN and Whisky enthusiasts come to the Harz Mountains to visit us, drink in the atmosphere, learn a few of our secrets and share a dram or some more with us afterwards.
Learn about THE HERCYNIAN DISTILLING process while experiencing the sights, sounds, and smells, of the distillery. Your tour will last about 1-1.5 hours and will end with a small tasting of different expressions of the famous HERCYNIAN SINGLE MALTS in the warehouse or in the distillery shop lounge area.
Please keep in mind that the BOUTIQUE DISTILLERY TOURS are in German language as well as most of the TOURS WITH THE MISTRESS. If you're interested in an English "wee dram" or "Elsperience" tour please send us an email.
The tours include one original Elsburn Tasting-Glass and a tasting of a variety of different HERCYNIAN SINGLE MALTS.
