Whisky Tasting Tour of Edinburgh's New Town

Food and Drink Experience Days: Try 5 premium single malt Scotch whiskies during this 2.5-hour tasting tour of Edinburgh’s New Town. Visit some of the city’s best off-the-beaten-track bars and discover the fascinating story of Scotland’s ‘water of life’. 

Tours begin at Royal Mile Whiskies on the High Street, in Edinburgh’s elegant New Town. Here, you’ll enjoy your first dram of premium single malt Scotch before heading to three more of the neighbourhood’s best whisky bars. Along the way, your expert guide will keep you entertained with stories and facts about Scotland’s national drink—from a distillery that uses sheep dung in the production process, to another that once sent its whisky into space! At each carefully chosen venue, you’ll sample a different single malt while learning to identify the nuances in flavour and aroma that give them their special character. Between stops, you’ll get to explore an oft overlooked part of the city with loads of cool places you won’t find in the average tourist guide—make time to visit more of them when the tour concludes!

The Whisky Tasting Tour of Edinburgh's New Town is a must-do activity for anyone new to or visiting the area. If you know someone who’s partial to a wee dram and a good time, why not treat them to an Experience Days gift voucher today!
