It's a good place to see wide range of whisky that I wouldnt have known before the visit. There's also a restaurant / bar for us to taste the whisky... and enjoy our day there. more

Many people don't know this but the heritage center actually has a bar and you do not have to take the tour (which is supposedly poor) in order to get in. Just breeze past the entrance and head toward the gift shop, go to your right. I wasn't a fan of Scotch until visiting this place. We arrived late in... more

This was informative and the wee dram and the free glass were a surprise at the start but the ending of the tour was a bit flat and the guide did not really tell us where to go and people were wandering a bit. Alos some people were under the impression that you get another choice of a dram at... more

Tour was over priced, cheesy, out dated and dull! Save your money and visit a actual Whiskey Distillery outside of town or a friendly pub to learn about whiskey. Exhibits were laughable....actual dogs and cats were stuffed! Yuck! Guide was embarassed by the end of the tour! Edinburgh is amazing you can find something more fun! more

Well, we went in knowing it would be a bit hokey, so that made it ok. It started with our free keepsake glass and a sample; the guide walked us through smelling, swirling, tasting, and that was well done. Then there was a ridculous film - this could have been so much better - but it felt like it was... more

The centre costs £9. When you first enter you are taken on to the barrel ride which used to be the last part of the tour. I found this to be a bit slow although interesting which takes you through the history of whiskey. Then you continue on to another room where you are given a taste of whiskey and... more

I was somewhat of a fan of single malt before the tour; afterward, I'm not only a big fan but a knowledgeable one. more

The tour begins with a very small (5mL) taste of whisky which was not particularly palatable. The basic production method is then detailed in a film (with a daft American tourist) that seemed to be aimed at 7 year olds. The production process is outlined again (and you get to smell some neat ethanol, gran whiskey and malt whiskey -... more

My husband is a HUGE Scotch fan. I am not. Nevertheless, we both enjoyed the Scotch Whisky Heritage Center, which features a talk on whisky production, a discussion of the varieties of whisky from around Scotland, a free tasting, and even a ride through the history of Scotch :) It was money well spent, and even though I still don't... more
