In 1785 the Deanston Cotton Mill opened its doors. Designed by one of the fathers of the industrial revolution, Richard Arkwright, Deanston was at the forefront of new beginnings as Scotland moved from agriculture to industrialisation.
In 1949 Deanston’s historic and long running commitment to sustainable energy was secured with the installation of new electrical turbines which to this day provide all of its electricity using water from the river and original lade.
In 1974 Deanston produced the very first bottle of Deanston Highland Single Malt Scotch Whisky.
The standard tour at Deanston costs £9 per person ( not included on tour price )
Each tour warmly welcomes you into the heart of the distillery, where Deanston makes award-winning Highland Single Malt Scotch Whisky.
