Excellent, immersive experience with the tour and tasting at the end. The Gold upgrade was worth it to not only get a bit more information but to try 4 different scotches from around Scotland. Their selection in the gift shop was great as well and our guide, Lorna, was fun and knowledgeable. Great recommendation to learn about scotch and the whole process!

This was a fun addition to our trip. Knowledgeable tour guide and got to taste lots of whiskey ranging in all flavor types. They have multiple tour types, so you can pick which one suits your budget and tastes. Lots of sitting, watching interactive videos and tasting.
