5.00Mark was a wealth of information on the history of the distilleries and their location in Scotland. Each location was influenced by local environments.

4.00This was a nice way to taste different whiskeys. The groups are small so its good for conversations. I only wish we could all try the same whiskeys (it varies based on the type of tour you purchase). One couple in our group was able to taste 5 whiskeys rather than the others that only paid for 4...I think the company should keep the people who paid for 5 tasting together and the people who pay for 4 tastings together so there are no awkward moments. With that being said: the couples that paid for 4 also had different whiskeys to try...so we would see the bottles they tried and smell them but couldn't taste them....also making it a little disappointing....but the whiskeys themselves were very good!

5.00Eleanor was a great host - very knowledgeable about Single Malt Scotch, how it's made, the regions of Scotland. The Vault was a very atmospheric venue and the very small group worked well. Eleanor tailored the tasting to our likes but also introduced new Whiskeys and Whiskeys we would never buy or, in some cases, find. Definitely recommended.
