It would seem a little remiss to come to Edinburgh and not sample our national drink, especially with the number of options on offer so we’ve compiled at list of fabulous places for whisky tasting in Edinburgh.

 

The Whiski Rooms – Whisky and Chocolate Tasting

The Whiski Rooms – Whisky and Cheese Tasting

Whisky and Cheese tasting may sound like an odd combination, but we’ll try most things once and having tried this we have to say it really works.

The tasting session pairs selected whiskies with a selection of premium, locally sourced cheeses.
