It’s no secret that Mr Smartie and I are big fans of Edinburgh Gin. So not a huge surprise that we went on the Classic Tour & Gin Tasting at their super-smart distillery in the centre of Edinburgh. Our tour guide welcomed us to the tour with a gin and tonic. As we enjoyed this, we watched a great audio-visual presentation that provided a background to gin, tonic, and the history of Edinburgh Gin. From there we moved to an area of the distillery where we explored the ingredients that go into London Gin, flavoured gins, and gin liqueurs. This was followed by an overview of the stills and distillation process. Our tour concluded in a private tasting room, where we sampled several gins created by Edinburgh Gin. Being a small group – eleven people in total – this part of the tour led to a lot of chat and laughter between us, as we discussed flavours and preferences etc. After the tour was over, Mr Smartie and I decided to try a little more gin at the distillery’s beautiful bar, followed by a visit to their shop before leaving. It was a great tour and a brilliant afternoon. Thanks to Edinburgh Gin and their staff for making it so memorable. We’d highly recommend this tour and a visit to the distillery to residents of, and visitors to, Scotland’s capital.

Absolutely loved it! My partner is not a fan of gin but he really enjoyed it too. We booked the gin tour but wished we had opted out for one of the longer tours. Our tour guide Finlay was very informative and knew his stuff, he made the tour fun and we learnt a lot about the gin history and making process. Finlay was able to answer all of our questions and we never felt rushed. The premises is bright, colourful and very new looking. There is also an option to grab a drink at the bar at the end of the tour and I recommend one of the yummy cocktails. Word of caution, eat before you go as they are not mean with the tasting experience and my partner and I did leave with a little glow! Not only is this experience amazing, its reasonably priced and you also receive a tour discount for items purchased in the shop. Definitely 5 stars from us! All the staff were friendly but a huge shout out to Finlay who we felt made the experience! Thank you Finlay!

We had a great time on the gin & chocolate tour! My guests from Canada love gin & really enjoyed how interactive the entire experience was. Simran, our guide, obviously loved her job and was brilliant at it! She really made our time extra special. I will definitely be back in future with other guests (probably for the gin & cheese tour!).
