Very nice little afternoon session. Our host was insightful and informative, whilst being a totally nice guy with a lot of humor. Gin tasted incredible. It wasn‘t a „this is our gin, buy our gin“ event, but it tasted so good, we bought it anyways. All in all great activity, and very reasonably priced.

The tour starts in a fancy gin bar where you get a welcome drink followed by a presentation and tasting of 3 samples of their own branded, in-house distilled gin downstairs in the tasting room. We were lucky to have 3 persons in total at our booked time, guaranteeing a near VIP tasting. After the tour we got to taste their newest addition to their flavour pallette which will be released to the public in a couple of months. Well worth the cost, value for money, highly recommended if you're a gin lover.

This is a must whether or not you are a gin aficionado. You will never learn more about gin than you will at 56 North. This was one of the highlights of our time in Edinburgh. The gin tour was a terrific experience. The restaurant and bar is a cozy atmosphere where one can easily fritter away an afternoon. The menu is extensive. There are 6 pages of gin drinks alone. There are another 5 of other types of beverages. The food was great. We really can’t say enough about this establishment. Just try it. You will be glad you did.
