We happen to stumble upon this place while visiting the Victorian market. We couldn't have asked more for a whiskey tasting session. The Bartender was very good at explaining us the details of each whiskey and different barrels etc for a novice like me.I would recommend it to anyone visiting Inverness.

What a brilliant space! I spend well over an hour there, drinking amazing rare drams (and quite well priced too!) and chatting with Nick (if I remember well!). The selection is great and the staff is amazing. I have been to many whisky bars around the world, and this one is one of the best experiences I had. Highly recommend. My partner enjoyed a great cocktail and nice beer as well! Can't wait to come back!

Really nice little whiskey bar. Nice, friendly bar tender. We had a whiskey flight and a superb chocolate orange cocktail. Great range of liquor to try, grouped in different budgets and styles. Liked the decorations too. Would definitely return.

Tremendous experience, very knowledgeable staff. The flights are incredibly well thought out and the staff take the time to explain where they're made and what makes them special. A great place to drink whisky and to learn about whisky.

You can get a good whisky selection all over Inverness, but you're unlikely to beat the thoughtfully organized program that caters to all levels of knowledge and wallet size. The zeal and knowledge of our server was amazing. Really only a few tables and some couches, so you might want to go "off hours." Big surprises were how good the cocktails looked too, and that they had a few rare bottles of rum (my tipple of choice) as well; so you don't all need to be whisky nerds to enjoy.

Such a precious find with a good range of whiskies from all over. The staff was knowledgeable and more than willing to share about everything whisky. His recommendations were all excellent and to our tastes. It's no wonder that it's popular with whisky lovers, and deservedly so.
