Overview

This one-hour walking tour takes place at Holyrood Distillery, Edinburgh’s first single malt distillery in over a century. The visit begins with a seasonal cocktail as the guide introduces the distillery’s history and its role in reviving whisky production in the city. You will see the washbacks and copper stills in action while the guide explains each stage of scotch whisky making, from malt selection to yeast varieties. The tour includes a tasting of the distillery’s classic single malt whisky and their Height of Arrows Gin, which is made using only three ingredients. During the tasting, the guide discusses the use of seasoned oak barrels sourced globally and how they influence the whisky’s flavor. The tour also covers the distillery’s approach to creating distinctive whisky and gin profiles with traditional and innovative methods. Alcoholic beverages are included in the price. The tour takes place entirely inside the distillery, which also features a tasting bar and shop for additional purchases.
