Mühlen-Erlebnisse

Immersive geführte Erlebnisse in unseren aktiven schottischen Mühlen

Looking for Hawick Experiences?

Seit über 225 Jahren sind wir Experten für die feinsten Fasern der Welt und stellen in unseren eigenen schottischen Spinnereien exquisite Luxusprodukte her. Wir laden Sie nun ein, uns zu einem ASVA 5-Sterne-Erlebnis in unserer Spinnerei in Elgin zu besuchen, wo unser Familienunternehmen seit 1797 mit natürlichen, erneuerbaren und biologisch abbaubaren Fasern arbeitet. Wir sind stolz darauf, B Corp-zertifiziert zu sein, was bedeutet, dass wir Teil einer globalen Gemeinschaft von Unternehmen sind, die hohe Standards in Bezug auf soziale und ökologische Auswirkungen erfüllen. Die B Corp-Zertifizierung stärkt den Gemeinschaftssinn, der unser Unternehmen seit Generationen prägt.


Sie können die Techniken, die unsere erfahrenen Handwerker über Generationen hinweg weitergegeben haben, um unsere luxuriösen Kaschmir- und Merinowollprodukte herzustellen, miterleben und mehr über unser reiches schottisches Erbe erfahren. An unserem Standort in Elgin, der einzigen vertikalen Weberei in Schottland, können Sie einige der dreißig Prozesse erleben, die bei der Herstellung eines einzelnen Schals anfallen, und mehr über die Familien erfahren, die unser Unternehmen über die Jahrzehnte hinweg geprägt haben. Von einem Blick hinter die Kulissen unserer aktiven Spinnerei über ein umfassendes Kulturerlebnis bis hin zum persönlichen Einkauf ist bei Johnstons of Elgin für jeden etwas dabei.

Few are able to experience cashmere in its entirety, from the quiet origin of the fibre on a remote Scottish farm to its transformation within the mills of Johnstons of Elgin. Across this journey, guests encounter the materials, processes and people that define the craft, gaining a level of access and understanding rarely offered. It is an experience shaped by knowledge, care and a shared respect for making.

Over two days, guests move between landscape and mill, guided by those who shape both. From the coastal stillness of Angus to the rhythm of the looms in Elgin, the journey offers a rare perspective on a craft refined over generations.
