Went for a whisky tasting for a friends birthday. This is not to miss in Scotland! Worth every penny and I actually know a thing or two about whisky now. The guides are amazing.
As ever, you cannot fault the Whisky Rooms at the Societies Queen Street venue. New malts every time , together with a lovely set of rooms, and equally high quality food from the bar .
I recommend getting there around mid afternoon for a bar meal as they can run out. Excellent choice that complements the main stars of the Society, their unique single malts & grain whiskers.
The best restaurant in town and relatively unknown. The public bar and member rooms are a great place to have a drink and the staff are very good and knowledgable .
Not crowded if you go early. Staff is very helpful in explaining how their bottles work and recommending based on your tastes
Fantastic location to sit back, relax and having one of these highly recommended whiskies from the society. Club members only !!!!
The next level for experiencing single malts ... trust your instincts, your nose, and the staff’s expertise. Let go of brand names and enjoy!
Capturing rarity and perfection in a glass, the Society's single malt whisky attracts curious and discerning whisky lovers from all corners of the world.
Worth a visit for whisky drinkers of all experience levels. Knowledgeable staff and unique drams to be had.
My brother is a member here, great service and an amazing selection of whiskies . Lovely light display for Christmas too.
A fantastic selection of whiskey to try, amazing rooms and relaxed atmosphere . Definitely one to return to.
I had the twenty year flight, and now added one pleated 9 year old! These were quite nice!
Really nice place with a cosy atmosphere . And great whisky !
First floor hedges in the shape of a penis. What's not to like?
The atmosphere, the Whiskey , the location the unique style
Don't be shy, the range is incredible, as are the bar staff so just sit back and relax-you're in safe hands.
Always ask the bar staff for the fish special. They are so good, they sometimes neglect to make them public knowledge ... Sublime!
Do I really need to leave a tip for here? If you know me, or the society, then you already know all you need to.
Members-only organisation devoted to whisky but don't let that put you off. Open, stylish , welcoming environment & staff . A haven in the city centre.
Haggis and a good dram here is awesome.
Wonderful place try the number 59.45
Wonderful selection of single cask drams right in the heart of Edinburgh!
