Penderyn Brecon Beacons Distillery - Visitor Centre and Shop

It was the perfect mix of industrial and homely. It felt like we were being shown around by a friend! Sarah was an excellent guide.

A lovely experience.We went on a tour around the distillery and thoroughly enjoyed ourselves.Alison was our tour guide, she was very knowledgeable and a fantastic voice for Penderyn.As I live nearish I will be popping in to get some more treats nearer Christmas

A brilliant little place to learn and jndertsmd about the making and production of Whiskey.An incredible experience and the staff are very friendly and passionate about what they do. The car park has no height restrictions and easy to park.The tour lasted for about an hour before you were then able to have 4 small samples. They also have gin to taste as well as Whiskey.Very educational. Would recommend.@momentsofoutdoors for more

Lovely distillery & whiskey but why sell a 4pm-5pm tour if you're going to be chasing us out because you need to shut at 5? Also cash registers had shut before tour had finished so be aware that you may not be able to spend cash (as we were going to). Also shame there was another group in the tasting bar so we couldn't hear everything.

Lovely, clean, well organised distillery. We did the tour and you can tell they care a lot about making whisky. Ray was our tour guide, what a lovely man and so knowledgeable and friendly. A real credit to the organisation - everyone needs a Ray at their work! Great 1hr spent in Penderyn. Oh and the whisky is delightful too of course ☺️

We had and absolutely fascinating and fun tour around here today. If you like whisky make sure you don't drive as the samples at the end are generous and the staff were more than helpful. Our guide knew her game and we didn't feel rushed around despite another tour waiting in the wings. Next step is to book in the master class. Thanks to all at Penderyn!!

Great little distillery with some excellent whiskeys and very friendly and knowledgeable staff. Loads of interesting history on the terrain and water source. They also do their own gin and other spirits. Highly recommend.

Excellent exhibition about whiskey distillery in general, followed by a great guided tour of the distillery finished by tasting of two drinks or one mini sample bottled drink. Shop before exit.

Lovely whiskey distillery. We popped in to pick up something to go. Really nice staff and will be back for a full tour. There are also distillery exclusives available.

I had the pleasure of visiting Penderyn Distillery in the beautiful Brecon Beacons on October 10th, 2023. This independent distillery is a hidden gem for whiskey enthusiasts and anyone interested in Welsh history.The distillery tour provided a fascinating insight into the art of whiskey-making, starting with a warm welcome from our knowledgeable guide. We explored the entire process, from milling and mashing to distillation, even getting a close look at their unique Faraday stills. The educational component was well-structured, offering a glimpse into the history of whiskey-making in Wales and the broader Welsh heritage.Penderyn's dedication to quality is evident, as they produce small quantities of exceptional malted barley spirit that matures into some of the smoothest malt whiskies worldwide. Not only did we learn about their outstanding single malt whiskies, but also about their other products like Merlyn Cream Liqueur, Brecon Five Vodka, Brecon Gin, and Siddiqui Rums.The tour concluded with a delightful tasting session, allowing us to sample two of their products or take home a miniature bottle. The gift shop had a variety of offerings for souvenirs and gifts.One tip for future visitors: It's wise to pre-book your tour online to secure your spot. Also, remember that the production floor is not accessible to under 14s or wheelchair users due to safety reasons. Penderyn Distillery is a must-visit for whiskey lovers and anyone looking to appreciate the craftsmanship and heritage of Welsh whiskey-making.
