Centre offers whisky on the Fringe

FESTIVAL-goers who like a dram with their drama could be in luck at this year’s Edinburgh Fringe.

Running every Sunday throughout August, the Scotch Whisky Experience’s half-day Enthusiasm for Scotch event gives visitors to the Royal Mile attraction the chance to discover the history of Scotland’s national drink.
Each event costs £50 and kicks off with a guided tour and private viewing of what’s said to be the world’s largest collection of Scotch whisky.
Visitors’ noses and palates will then be put to the test with a sensory perception challenge, which involves an aroma quiz and blind tasting. The afternoon will culminate in a tutored tasting of four single malt Scotch whiskies.
