The Scotch Whisky Experience

Experience world famous whisky in Edinburgh, an attraction that every dad will enjoy. Get dad to enjoy the day out with a promise to visit The Scotch Whisky Experience, a five star visitor attraction at the top of Edinburgh’s Royal Mile, where we’ve been inspiring visitors to Edinburgh about the joys of Scotch whisky for over 35 years.

The Scotch Whisky Experience sits at the top of Edinburgh’s famous Royal Mile, right next door to Edinburgh Castle. They’re on a mission to make the world fall in love with Scotch whisky. Having first opened to the public in 1988, The Scotch Whisky Experience was created when 19 individual Scotch whisky companies jointly invested money towards showcasing the Scotch whisky industry to international visitors.

An interactive exhibition, not a working distillery, the Experience represents 90% of the Scotch whisky industry, making it the ideal first stop for whisky enthusiasts. They welcome around 300,000 visitors through the doors each year, 80% of whom are international.
