Glenkinchie Distillery & Johnnie Walker Princes Street Tour
Johnnie Walker Experience
Our journey will begin at Charlotte Square in the centre of Edinburgh, where we'll meet up and hit the road to reach the world-famous Glenkinchie Distillery, one of the 'Four Corners of Scotland' distilleries of the Johnnie Walker brand.
Nestled deep in the picturesque landscape of East Lothian, Glenkinchie distills the renowned Edinburgh Malt. Once we arrive at the Glenkinchie Distillery, we'll embark on a guided tour to learn about the field-to-glass whisky-making process that truly captures the essence of East Lothian.
Before heading out from this distillery we'll make a pit stop at the tasting room, for a guided tasting of three whiskies, paired with a cocktail. Here, we'll also indulge in a tasty lunch to complete the experience and for you to taste authentic Scottish food.
After another drive, we'll arrive at Johnnie Walker Princes Street in the centre of Scotland's capital. At this world-renowned distillery, we'll start with a flavor quiz to uncover our unique taste preferences. This will personalize our whisky tasting, making each sip tailored to our preferred tastes. Awesome, right?
Here, we'll also take a tour of the establishment and discover the pioneering efforts of John Walker's epic quest for bold flavours that bring people together.
Finally, as our exciting whisky adventure concludes, we'll say our goodbyes at Johnnie Walker Princes Street after about 7.5 hours together.
