Product Information

Get ready to be transported into the heart of one of the most thrilling and iconic events in sports - the 2023 Ryder Cup. With its rich tradition and fierce current controversy, this year's Ryder Cup promises to be an unforgettable one. With a prominent year lined up for St Andrews next year with the 150th Open Golf Championship taking place in July 2022, Paul Miller, co-founder of Eden Mill, is determined to see the visitor centre open its doors by late spring next year. Our first stop is only a short drive outside Edinburgh - the magnificent Forth bridges at South Queensferry. There has been a crossing here since the 11th century when Queen Margaret established a ferry service to transport pilgrims from Edinburgh to Dunfermline Abbey and St Andrews. Upon opening in 1890 the Forth Rail Bridge was the largest steel structure in the world and is one of the major engineering achievements of the Victorian age. The Forth Road Bridge was opened in 1964 and the new Queensferry Crossing was built alongside in 2017. Lindores also offers aqua vitae, which differs from the whisky we know today. Aqua vitae is distilled in pot stills before being infused with a blend of spices and herbs, including cleavers, lemon verbena, Douglas fir and sweet cicely. All of these ingredients are grown in the grounds of Lindores.
