Graeme was a wonderful...

Graeme was a wonderful scotch and stories guide! This was a very unique, small group experience where you get to try scotch from the regions around Scotland. Would gladly do this experience again if ever in Edinburgh again!

Whiskey and Scottish storytelling. So cool!

Koffe was terrific. Learned a lot about whiskey, tasted for different ones, and he regaled us with very interesting stories. It was better than we expected and everybody had a great time

Big G's Masterclass

We learned so much more than we anticipated and Graham aka "G" was fantastic. He clearly loves sharing his expertise.

Best evening in Edinburgh

Amazing evening. Jess was not only knowledgeable but also such a great storyteller, bringing us all into the stories and history of whisky and Scotland. Particularly enjoyed the guest appearance from her dog! The choice of whiskies was excellent and has introduced me to a new favorite. Best thing I did in Edinburgh.
