Maltings Tour

Our ticketed Maltings Tour is a rare glimpse into the malting process, and oft-forgotten but super important part of single malt production.

Exclusively running for Glasgow Doors Open Days, the tour brings visitors into our staff-only production courtyard, taking in the former farm buildings, grain intake, barley storage, and getting up close with our impressive drum maltings - one of vanishingly few still onsite at any Scotch whisky distillery.

The Maltings Tour is partially outdoors so please dress for the weather. There are significant areas of uneven ground on the tour and participants will be required to wear hi-vis (provided by the distillery). There is a step up into the Maltings but an alternative wheelchair access route can be opened up on request.

Large print tour scripts can be provided on request. Smoking and vaping are strictly banned outside of the dedicated smoking area.

The meeting point and end point for the Maltings Tour is the distillery Tasting Bar.

Snapshots of Jackton

Our drop-in exhibition, "Snapshots of Jackton", gives visitors an insight into the story and people behind the creation and past lives of Jackton Distillery, featuring photography from each year of the renovation process alongside exclusive written commentary from the family who made it happen.

This exhibition opens to the public for the first time exclusively for Glasgow Doors Open Days 2026.

About this Venue

Jackston Distillery

Hayhill Road, G74 5AN
GET DIRECTIONS

Jackton Distillery is a fully independent, family-owned, female-led Scotch whisky distillery.

We’re here to shake up the whisky world with a fresh, daring approach to craft spirits!

We filled our first cask in 2020, and since then we’ve added a range of gins, vodka, and even started brewing our own beer while we wait for our single malt to mature.

Our grain-to-glass philosophy means we’re dedicated to self-sufficiency and sustainability.
