5.00Our host, Rok was excellent. He was knowledgeable, humorous and generous with his time. We must have tasted at least 10 different drinks, including gin, Brennivín and various whiskeys, plus a G&T on arrival. It was easily the best distillery tour and tasting experience I have ever been on.
Great Time at Floki

5.00Distillery tour was great! 'Rock' was our tour guide and he was engaging, friendly, very knowledgeable and gave an interesting history of the company. There was a large selection of gin and whisky to sample, definitely worth a visit. Thank you to Rock for an enjoyable afternoon.

5.00This was very enjoyable, learned a lot of Iceland’s history while tasting some excellent whiskey and Gin. It is well worth the time. A hint, be prepared to take a taxi or have a designated driver after this.

5.00My wife and I have been on various distillery tours and this one rates as one of the best. It was not just interesting as to the distillery process but very informative on the history and culture of Iceland. Our only regret is not having enough luggage space for the bottles we want to take home with us. Our tour guide was knowledgeable and it made for a great afternoon.

5.00Family distillery that knows how to receive! Their website says 1h15 visit, but it takes 2h of friendly experience 🤩 I was able to test their entire production, from gin to whisky with a tour of the vats and lively explanations in a joyful atmosphere. The fact that it is in English does not pose a problem, the person whose name I forgot 😅, take the time to explain slowly or repeat if necessary.
Informative Tour and Great Icelandic Whisky Tasting!

5.00We had a great time at the Flokí Whisky Distillery Tour and Tasting experience! Our guide was very knowledgeable and made the experience fun and informative. We got to try several Icelandic gin varieties and whiskies, all while learning more about the process and how they are made. We even got to learn all about the equipment used in the distillery! We bought a bottle of the blueberry gin, the birch whisky, and the sheep dung smoked whisky to take home with us. It was a great experience and we recommend it to all visitors in Iceland!

5.00I can highly recommend this tour of Iceland’s only distillery. Our host was very friendly, offering us a complimentary welcome Gin & Tonic, and then explaining to us how Iceland whiskey is different to other whiskies from around the world. The tasting measures were extremely generous and I went home very merry!
