My wife and I traveled around Europe on our honeymoon and Edinburgh was our first stop. On our way to the castle we noticed the Scotch Whiskey Heritage Centre standing in all its glory. Even if you don't necessarily consider yourself a scotch enthusiast you need to take this tour and enjoy a sample - you're in scotland after all. The tour ...
Staff was friendly and informative. Tour was not boring and giving key answers about whisky. We were given a sample and told to keep the glass as a gift,which was nice.

A very reaxed atmosphere, you have the chance to try lots of whiskey with expert advice on what may suit your taste. The staff here were very friendly and held whiskey for ever taste. Even if you are not a whiskey drinker they hold a large range of whickey cream type drinks, which are very enjoyable over ice.

Could be better
