Comunicato Stampa disponibile solo in lingua originale.
THE GLENLIVET, ABERLOUR AND SCAPA DISTILLERY VISITOR CENTRES WILL REOPEN TO THE PUBLIC FROM THE 29THJULY, FOLLOWED BY STRATHISLA DISTILLERY FROM THE 7TH AUGUST.
Leading Scotch #whisky producer #chivas Brothers will be safely welcoming visitors into its world-famous brand homes once again following their temporary closure in March as a result of the coronavirus pandemic.
In line with Scottish government guidelines, #whisky lovers will be able to safely visit The Glenlivet, Aberlour and Scapa visitor centres from the 29th July, and the Strathisla visitor centre - home of #chivas Regal - from the 7th August.
Each site has been equipped with extensive health and safety measures to ensure visitors can take part in the adapted tasting experiences, now operating at a reduced capacity, all while safely soaking up the beautiful scenery of Speyside and Orkney.
Checkpoints have been implemented across each site, including temperature checks at site entrances, hand sanitiser stations in each room, clear social distancing signposts throughout and increased cleaning procedures across the sites. Face masks will be provided where necessary, however, visitors are encouraged to bring their own.
Those wishing to visit the brand homes and experience a socially distanced guided tasting will be required to pre-book their tickets online in order to effectively manage visitor numbers and ensure strict social distancing measures are adhered to at all times. Each site is also operating in accordance with the COVID-19 Track and Trace initiative in order to ensure the safety of visitors, staff and the surrounding community. For more information, guests are invited to visit the brand homes website.
In addition to learning about the craftsmanship behind every bottle of #chivas Brothers’ blended and single malt whiskies, Scotch enthusiasts will be able to purchase world-class whiskies from the shops at each site via contactless payment.
Gordon Buist, #chivas Brothers Production Director, commented:
“After four challenging months, we’re delighted to be able to reopen the doors to our brand homes to give visitors the chance to safely enjoy our whiskies and the beautiful surroundings in Speyside and Orkney.
“We’ve been privileged to support our local communities in Scotland during the pandemic - including producing and distributing thousands of litres of hand sanitiser as NHS Scotland’s first pro-bono supplier - and so continuing to support them by opening responsibly and safely is our number one priority. We have had substantial best-in-class Safe System of Work processes in place across all of our operational sites over the last few months, and we have been working closely with our local Speyside and Orkney communities to enable us to take significant steps in implementing these strict social distancing and sanitation measures in our visitor centres as well, ensuring we’re able to welcome visitors safely, protect our colleagues and neighbours, and support Scottish tourism.
“Whether a discerning drinker or discovering drams for the first time, the team and I look forward to welcoming visitors safely back to our homes to uncover more about our rich Scotch heritage.”
