Great tour! Mark was a delight. I learned so much about tasting whisky! I highly recommend this to friends or couples. I love his back story and that his wife works with him.

Very knowledgable host with a great understanding of the scotch drink and the industry. Answered all questions in a relaxed manner & took all the time to make it a pleasant experience. We tasted scotchs that a good crosssection and were not the ones you typically see in advertisements. Much better than going to a distillery to taste. We all enjoyed it.

An incredibly fun experience. Great stories and great expertise, and, obviously great whisky. Just wonderful conversation—felt like fast friends and fast whisky aficionados after the tasting. Definitely do this if you’re in Oban.

This was a very informative and lovely whisky tasting. This tour focused on some lesser known but equally good whisky. Our guide was very knowledgeable and was able to provide interesting details about each whisky and answer our questions.

Skip the bigger places and book this personalized, informative and memorable whisky tasting experience! Mark is personable and so knowledgable about all aspects of Scottish whisky-making, and we learned a lot and it was so enjoyable. Very relaxed and fun, and one of the highlights of our two-week trip in Scotland. Definitely recommend adding to your "to-do" list when in Oban!
