Introduce a prominent Fife family with impeccable whisky credentials, then sprinkle generously with determination and the spirit of adventure.

Take a tour to find out the story of Kingsbarns and Fife whisky - there are 3 types of tours suitable for all levels of whisky interest. If gin is more your thing, take a tour of Darnleys Gin Distillery - step in to the still room and find out how Darnley’s Gin is made followed by a tasting.
