Reviews
Superb. We got to see a guided animation on scotch whisky production, followed with a tasting session on selected distinct whiskeys from each unique region. We also got to keep the special tasting glass.
The overall audio-visual equipment was excellent. Our group had a female guide from New York who was very enthusiastic and gave a great explanation. I absolutely loved the whiskey lounge at the end!
Autumn was an amazing guide! The experience exceeds expectations understanding the different aromatics of the regions in Scotland. However, we could only choose to taste whisky from 1 region. It would’ve been perfect if we can try from all 5 regions.
The tour was amazing. It exceeded all of my expectations. I recommend this to whoever is coming to Edinburgh.
Guide Eric's passionate and entertaining explanations were wonderful, and being able to taste the whiskies alongside his descriptions was a great opportunity to learn more about whiskey!
I was lucky the group is really small just 5 of us. The tour share information about how whiskey is made through video presentation. However, we were not given sufficient time to check the whiskey gallery and they chased us out already saying the next group will come. This is really disappointing. I didn’t pay to just watch 4 videos, drink a cup on whiskey and out to the retail. it’s so rush at the end. I thought we can slowly enjoy the whiskey in our hand and check out the collection.
Great experience for my friend and lovely people with passion. Must have experience in Edinburgh, Scotland
Jonny Walker Tour is more attractive compared to this. Should introduce more features to the tour to increase the popularity. guide: moderate drinks:low
A must-see attraction in Edinburgh where you'll learn about the whisky-making process. Just a heads-up, the tour prices are a little expensive, but everything else is perfect.
It's a worthwhile trip. The tour guide gave a very detailed introduction. When the time comes, you can just scan the Qrcode to enter.
