If you are in the mood for learning about/tasting whisky, then Whisky World is the place to go! Situated just off from the Royal Mile, Whisky World is just a short walk from the city centre and so it is an incredibly convenient place for tourists to go. \n\nThere are lots of whisky stores around Edinburgh, and in my experience they are all much or a muchness, and if you have seen one then you have pretty much seen them all. But this store is just as good as any other which I have been in. It is very Scottish inside, with tartan drapes and Scottish music playing in the background. \n\nThe staff are very friendly and highly knowledgeable about all the different types of whisky and the malting process etc. Whisky World stock a vast selection of whiskys, which are perfect as gifts for foreign friends, and they also the wee miniature bottles too which are ideal if you don't want to fork out for the bigger bottles.
