To celebrate the launch, Dabton House has launched the Ultimate Luxury Whisky Experience, a tailored journey into the world of Scotch whisky. Guests are invited to immerse themselves in the craft and flavours of Dabton Whisky through guided tastings, along with masterclasses about the artistry behind Scotland’s national drink.

A historic Scottish destination for modern luxury
Nestled near the whisky bonds at Claxton’s, Dabton House was designed in 1820 by architect William Atkinson; the estate was commissioned by Walter Montagu Douglas Scott, the 5th Duke of Buccleuch, and later became a family home for the 10th Duke and Duchess of Buccleuch.
In its latest chapter, renovations led by Walter and Elizabeth, the Earl and Countess of Dalkeith, have transformed the house into a luxury retreat while preserving its charm as a family home.

Priced at £160 per bottle, Dabton Whisky is available directly from Dabton House and can also be enjoyed by the glass in the estate’s Drawing Room.
