Holyrood Distillery to open in the summer
May 2019
Due to open in July of this year, Holyrood Distillery will be Edinburgh's first single malt whisky distillery for nearly 100 years, and will also be a significant new visitor attraction in the capital, offering a variety of different experiences as well as evening hospitality options.
With a focus on flavour, the visitor will enjoy a hands on, sensory experience to guide them through both the gin and whisky produced onsite. There will be a well-stocked shop which will be open to all, and the visitor will end their tour in the tasting bar, which offers stunning views over Holyrood Park.
Tours will accommodate up to 22 guests and range from the full distillery tour, separate Gin or Whisky experiences, to a 2-hour masterclass with head distiller Jack Mayo.
Housed in a historic B-Listed former railway building, the project is the dream of Canadian couple Rob & Kelly Carpenter, and David Robertson, who have hired a team of leading industry experts to help them create a number of exceptional malt whiskies, gins and gin liqueurs. The new visitor operations team have started to recruit staff in preparation for the opening.
The award-winning Gin range can currently be purchased online or at weekends at the on-site pop up shop. The team are looking forward to promoting the range at forthcoming festivals and events & hope to welcome around 100,000 visitors in the first full year of operation. Tickets will be available to purchase later this month and walking tours of the local area including a whisky and gin tasting are now on sale.
