ToraFest 2025: A Week of Smoke, Sound & Surprises on Skye
Welcome to the very first Torabhaig Festival — or as we’re calling it, ToraFest 2025.
A week-long celebration of flavour and fun for all the family on the Isle of Skye. From the 7th to the 15th of June, we’re opening up our distillery doors with a main event every single day, new and exclusive drams to discover, and a few unexpected curiosities...
We’re inviting locals, explorers, families and whisky lovers from far and wide to join us for an unforgettable island experience. Saturday 7th is our dedicated Family Day, but little explorers are welcome all week.

The Sound of Sleat
There’s always been music in these hills. At ToraFest, we’re just turning up the volume. Expect live performances from some of Skye’s finest traditional bands, pipers to even a few familiar faces from our own stillhouse team.
Expect ceilidh rhythms, Gaelic ballads, unexpected covers, and the kind of tunes that make a dram taste even better. It’s a celebration of Sound and Skye - and everyone’s invited to join the chorus.
So pull up a chair, take the weight off and find out more about the Torabhaig way.
Bring the Whole Clan
ToraFest isn’t just for the whisky lovers - it’s for the storytellers, the snack seekers, the curious wee adventurers and the grown-ups they bring along. With hands-on activities, local food stalls, music, and a few unexpected discoveries tucked around the distillery grounds… there’s plenty to explore, even if you’re not here for the peat.
Saturday 7th June is our dedicated Family Day, but we promise there’ll be fun for all ages throughout the week. Let’s just say… some of the surprises have been millions of years in the making.
Dram Discoveries Await
ToraFest is your chance to taste something new — and we mean new. Throughout the week, we’ll be pouring a selection of first sips and distillery-only drams, including exclusive bottlings you won’t find on any shelf.
Some mark the next step in our journey. Others are one-offs, drawn straight from our warehouse and shared just with those who make the trip. If you’re the sort who likes to say “I tried it before anyone else” - this is your moment.
