    And what an experience. They host an unrivaled collection of Scotch whiskies and offer a knowledgeable staff that can suggest reasonably-priced options you likely never knew existed. The place is made even better by its customers—often devoted whisky pilgrims who treat their visit as the fulfillment of a religious experience.

    Not a whisky drinker but still want to be part of the experience? You are a true whisky fan and want more out of the experience?This is the place! There are different packages to suit everyone. We went for the silver package. Amazing sensory experience to learn all about the art of Scotch Whisky! Truly worth the price of the tour. Fraser was our guide and was able to answer all our questions. There were alot of surprises that came with the entire experience. It is a must do when coming to Edinburgh!!

    Came here for a tour at 10 in the morning, maybe not my best choice but I had other tours booked before I discovered this place online. Jamie, an American, hosted my tour and did a wonderful job detailing the whiskey making process from rain to my glass. She was very knowledgeable about the different regions and was able to explain the tasting notes perfectly. Beyond the tasting part the building itself was very nice, lots of lights and sounds/smells to enhance the experience. The gift shop was also nice, I got a couple shots of some of the whiskeys I tried to take home and share with my family. 10/10, definitely worth it, especially if you already enjoy a glass or two of whiskey!

    I’m a Personal Tour Guide and travel all over Scotland and have visited many of Scotland’s Whisky Distilleries. This experience is a fantastic way to learn about Whisky from the start all the way through to tasting Whisky. The most impressive collection of Whisky that I’ve ever seen. Great value for money. If you like Whisky or you’ve never tasted Whisky this experience should be on your must do list when visiting Scotland. Children are welcome too and even get a sample of our second national drink!

    Excellent experience for old and newcomers to Scotch Whiskey. The whiskey tasting conducted by Jamie was excellent and we loved her energy and enthusiasm. We learned a lot about the history of the distillation and their origin stories. The whole process is worth the admission and one of the highlights of our stay in Edinburgh. They have large array of scotch whiskey and related products you can purchase in their lovely shop. Overall great experience and a must try.
