I've seen some sad zoos. These places need serious control. There's a farm you can visit up the road too. They ought to do the full experience of field to plate to inject some realism, and I speak as a mostly veggie. People seem able to reconcile that the same animal can be cute and tasty.
I've not actually toured a distillery. I need to fix that when I'm next in Scotland.
Distillery tours are rather good and quite interesting in a geeky distilling and whisky way.
I agree, there is so much more they could do if they thought out of the box but they don't. They just stick some sad-looking animals in some enclosures then expect people to pony up and walk about them. This one didn't even have a petting bit, although the rona seems to have put paid to that even now
The missus doesn't drink it, so she wouldn't be up for a tasting. I do like to see how things are made.
When I lived in Germany I went on a work outing to a sekt (fizzy wine) place. I'm not a bubbly drinker and didn't enjoy the tasting we had there. I didn't want to seem rude by turning it down.
I don't think mine would be up for a tasting but she has surprised me before. I think she could again and possibly for the not looking rude part of it!
