Whisky is the national drink of Scotland. We have been producing it since the 15th century and we\u2019ve become rather good at it! The earliest written reference to \u2018Aqua Vitae\u2019 came from a monk at Lindores Abbey, which is now a working distillery again, and not too far from us in the Kingdom of Fife! Whisky is exported all over the world, old and rare bottles are sold for many thousands of pounds and there is certainly an art to tasting it. Whether you\u2019re a beginner or a connoisseur, Edinburgh is the place to start your whisky journey!<\/p>\n
