Edinburgh: The Scotch Whisky Experience Tour and Tasting｜United Kingdom

Voted SCOTLAND'S BEST VISITOR ATTRACTION 2024, we’re the only attraction in the world to take guests on a grand tour of Scotland’s five whisky regions, telling the whole story of Scotch whisky!

Join us on a storytelling adventure rich in visuals, aromas and sensory surprises. Witness the fiery birth of a whisky cask and learn why the angels always claim their share, as you discover each region’s unique aromas and flavours, from the floral and fruity malts of Speyside, to the smoky and peaty whiskies of Islay.

During your guided tour, you'll explore the glass & marble vault of our amazing Scotch whisky collection - the world’s most famous, with almost 3,500 individual bottles dating from 1897.

The collection includes one of the world’s rarest bottles of Johnnie Walker, featuring the top hatted icon walking the wrong direction; Royal Jubilee commemorative editions; the world’s smallest bottle; and a breathtaking display of Macallan, Dewar’s and Chivas, alongside golf, chess and Scottie dog bottle designs found nowhere else in the world. And of course, the mysterious Lady in Red!

You begin your tour by learning about the production and maturation process of single malt Scotch whisky, before enjoying a sensory journey across Scotland, and an introduction to the five Scotch whisky-producing regions.

Next, you'll discover the art of blending, in our Blenders' Sample Room, learning the secrets of how the world-famous blends are created, before enjoying the chance to explore "one of the seven wonders of the Scotch whisky world" - the glass & marble vault of our world-famous Scotch whisky collection.

When you select the Gold Tour option, after enjoying a fully guided Silver Tour, you'll compare and contrast four regional single malts, while relaxing in the McIntyre Gallery. Assisted by experienced guides, and provided with tasting notes, you'll be able to sip like a true connoisseur.
