Glenora Distillery’s Tours & Tasting experience is a brilliant choice if you fancy something a little more exclusive, offering a private, appointment-only look behind the scenes of one of Nova Scotia’s most iconic whisky names. It’s designed to feel personal and unhurried, with plenty of time to dig into the story of the distillery, how it came to be, and what makes its whisky distinctive.

The experience goes beyond a standard tour, taking you through the production side of things with a knowledgeable host who brings the process to life, from the heritage and setting to the craft that goes into each expression. The real highlight comes in the Whisky Warehouse, where you’ll draw and taste a barrel sample straight from the cask, a wonderfully atmospheric moment that gives you a direct connection to the whisky as it matures.

To round things off, you’ll move to the pub for a private guided tasting, comparing a selection of Glenora whiskies with expert insight into flavour, character and style. Running seasonally through the warmer months, it’s an ideal addition for anyone who enjoys food and drink experiences, and it works particularly well as a relaxed afternoon treat during a Cape Breton stay.
