Tasting Scotch in Spanish top - Great experience to experience Scotch whisky. In our case we were first timers in whisky and Marcos was very kind in helping us understand both the production process and the different varieties we can find. It is seen that he is an expert in the subject, in fact he works in a distillery, and this tasting is highly advisable both for first-timers and already initiated in the world. Highly recommended if you are looking for a holiday in Escpcia.

Engaging and educational scotch tasting with Carlos! - This scotch tasting was wonderful…. Carlos was super friendly, extremely knowledgeable about whisky, and broke down the whisky process, regions and drinking styles in an entertaining and interesting way. The tasting was very personable and he kept me engaged the whole time. I highly recommend Carlos for your next guided whisky tasting!

A magnificent experience - I had previously listened to Marcos on podcasts, and I was impressed: both by what he knows about a world as exciting as whiskey, and by how he communicates it, in an enjoyable and didactic way. The in-person experience was even better, very personalized, not at all the typical meeting for tourists. Highly recommended for all whiskey lovers.

Must-see activity in Edinburgh - The experience was great, something very different to do in Edinburgh. They gave us a taste of several whiskeys and the talk was very entertaining. Marcos knows a lot and told everything with great passion. I highly recommend doing so, because whiskey is much more complex than it looks. 10 out of 10.

Richard is the best! - Richard was the best! So knowledgeable and gave us historical information on Edinburgh on our way to the tasting site. Tried 4 different whisky’s and learned about the history and region of each one. He made the history fun! As non whisky drinkers we still really enjoyed the tour and all the detail that Richard put into making it a great experience.

Fantastic - We loved the Whysky tasting with Marcos. Very closely. He explained to us types of Whysky, areas, stories and some curiosities. The three of us have been in a Pub, tasting three different types of Whysky. I recommend it.
