The ticket price includes the cost of the whiskies (ONLY IF YOU DO NOT SELECT THE "NO WHISKY" OPTION.) 4 great single malt Scotch whiskies will be served over the tour.

Scotch!

Graham gave a very nice introduction to scotch and Scotland. He was entertaining, informative, and took the time to get the know the whole group, including their opinions of the scotches tasted. We could have easily spent two more hours at the tasting!

I have been on other more...

I have been on other more commercial tours of whiskey. This was an opportunity to hear from a local about the different regions producing whiskey and the nuances of each. Graeme was highly personable and kind. Would recommend.

Koffee was outstanding. Visiting Edinburgh from India for the first time, and the stories, tastings, and explanations were mesmerizing.

Excellent guide, great experience

Such a fun experience! Our guide Ben C was so knowledgeable and entertaining and this felt much more intimate and fun than some of the larger whiskey tasting offerings. Would recommend to anyone visiting Edinburgh!
