    The staff were great and helped us hand pick some to try. The tastings were wonderful and it was priced reasonably, we skipped the tour.

    We did the gin & chocolate pairing tour which was exceptional. Very enjoyable tour provided by Dominic, I learned a lot and the tasting was good fun and surprising with how tastes changed with the addition of lemon, mint, grapefruit.

    Fantastic tour and tasting experience of a craft gin distillery in Edinburgh. Our tour guide, Alyssa was very informative and knowledgeable. We tasted 4 different gin’s that they make on the premises. This is the real deal folks. Small batch craft gin. Go check it out.

    This is a fantastic little distillery which I would highly recommend visiting if you’re in Edinburgh. It’s a very new distillery with a young enthusiastic staff who are very passionate and knowledgeable. Our guide Thais was excellent and for a new distillery the whisky is delicious. At the base of Arthur’s Seat it also has a spectacular backdrop.

    Absolutely great afternoon, lots of information delivered in a funny friendly way with quite a few small refreshments to help it along.
    Neil made the day so much fun, thoroughly recommend this for anyone who loves their rum or gin.

    We went for the Gin and cheese class....exceeded my expectations! The class was the perfect size and the owner, James was great with the educational component. I learned alot of valuable information that I have already applied upon returning to the US. Eight different gins from different distilleries and 8 cheeses. The atmosphere and experience was so good we went upstairs and ordered drinks and snacks. Service was outstanding as was the food. My only regret is I can't get South Loch over here.

    A group of us recently did a walking whisky tour with Justine, she was fantastic, knowledgeable, friendly, funny and not phased by anything including the ‘colourful locals’. We all had a great time and found her tour really engaging, with the whisky at the end a real bonus and tailored to the tour.
    I would certainly recommend this tour, even if you know about whisky you will learn something from Justine.
