Wolfburn sits on the edge of Thurso in Caithness, the most northerly distillery on the Scottish mainland and an easy stop on the North Coast 500. There's no visitor centre here. One of the team walks you through the working distillery, from the still house to the warehouses, and the Classic tour finishes with a tasting of five of our whiskies. Tours run Monday to Friday all year, and on Saturdays from April to September.
