5.00Simply brilliant. Our group were a brilliant bunch considering we had only just met. Our guide Rosie was so engaging and funny and made sure we had such a good experience, she is a star! The building is stunning and we loved the whole tour.
Fantastic, a real gem of an experience.

5.00From the minute we arrived we were made welcome and informed. The staff were excellent. The facility beautiful and of course the gin was yummy. The hour tour was both interesting and informative. Findlay our guide for the day was really lovely and able to answer our questions. I can’t speak highly enough about the staff.
Fun tour and even better gins

5.00Had a really enjoyable time on the tour. Gregor was a great guide and helped make it a fun group experience getting everyone involved. You get to taste a good number of gins as well as having a G&T at the start of the tour. Would highly recommend.

5.00Smashing afternoon! Simran was a delightful and knowledgeable guide, and made it all very friendly and informative. The premises are gorgeous, and sparkling clean! One teeny thing - I would have liked the next tour to be delayed a bit because in a not huge space the other group's commentary somewhat interfered with Simran's talk. But overall, I HUGELY recommend this and am definitely going back when the rooftop bar is open again. BTW the shop is temptation central.
Waited 2 years for this !

5.00We had the best time! Reccomend it for a great girls night out. Chloe our guide was excellent - so much fun! And the cocktails after are amazing. Bar tenders excellent too. If you’re visiting Edinburgh you have to put this on your “to do” list.
Gin all the way
