The 10 Best International Whiskey Distilleries to Visit

And whether you’re traveling in the north of Scotland, in central Japan, or on Vancouver Island, there may well be a great distillery around the corner for you to tour. Some of these distilleries are new facilities; others have been in operation for centuries; and a few more are dedicated entirely to the history of their craft. But all of them offer visitors the opportunity to see a different aspect of the whisk(e)y-making process.
