We made it with Fran, besides being a lovely person, it explains perfectly how whiskey is made, how to perform the tasting, characteristics of which you try... Besides giving us recommendations for things to do on the days we were in Edinburgh. A crack!!!!

An amazing taste - We had never tasted whiskey and we loved the tasting. Maria was a great guide. He explained everything super well and we were very comfortable. I would definitely recommend it as a must when visiting Edinburgh.

Quite an experience to do in Edinburgh. - Definitely one of the best things to do in Edinburgh. We were lucky to do the tasting my boy and I alone and although we are not whiskey drinkers, we have loved it and we will repeat it for sure. You can see that Marcos likes his work and knows everything about this drink and knows how to transmit it wonderfully making you interested in what counts throughout the time, which is not a little!! Information, history, anecdotes... besides it is very bad! recommended 100%100

Whiskey tasting with a. Expert! - Marco was fantastic! He was incredibly knowledgeable about whiskey and answered all of our questions. We weren’t big whiskey drinkers at first, but he helped us figure out what we liked and didn’t like. Highly recommend this tour for anyone looking to learn more about whiskey – we’ll definitely be telling our friends about it!

An intimate and very pleasant time essential to know this face of Scotland. - Our experience with Marcos has been perfect. We’ve learned about the history of Scotch whisky, its making and other curious stories from someone who is passionate and who has experienced it in the first person. As well as the tasting of 3 whiskey from different regions, with their differences, plus a fourth special. We definitely recommend doing the tasting with him and hope he does well.

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.
