Discover an Aladdin’s Cave of Scotch whisky at the Scotch Whisky Experience on Edinburgh’s historic Royal Mile. The Diageo Claive Vidiz Scotch Whisky Collection - the world’s largest collection of scotch whiskies - is the jewel in the crown of the new multi-million pound tour at The Scotch Whisky Experience. This unique and record breaking collection, featuring 3384 bottles, was built up over many years by Brazilian whisky enthusiast Claive Vidiz, who scoured the world for whiskies to create this magnificent collection. The collection is displayed in an opulent high security vault with glittering chandeliers, marble floors and carefully crafted etched glass and is a ‘must see’ experience for whisky fans and novices alike. An exclusive in-depth viewing will be available daily as a spectacular conclusion to the Scotch whisky tour. Join an expert guide and learn some of the intriguing stories behind a selection of bottles within this truly unique collection. Enjoy a special tutored nosing and sample two drams of whisky specially selected to match your individual tastes, as you marvel at the stunning array of some of the rarest and most exclusive whiskies in the world. The visit concludes in a stunning exhibition where you can discover more about the people and history behind the drink, from the very beginnings of a cottage industry through to the global success of Scotch whisky today.
