The Port of Leith Distillery is a remarkable new landmark in Edinburgh’s historic whisky district of Leith. This is the UK’s first vertical whisky distillery. In fact, nobody has built anything quite like this anywhere in the world. Founded by two friends from Edinburgh, the building reflects the company’s ambition to bring a modern and pioneering approach to producing Scotland’s national drink, leveraging years of research conducted over the years preceding construction. The production process is laid out over the first 4 floors of the building, with the gleaming copper stills set on the ground floor. The upper half of the building is given over to visitor facilities, with a tasting floor, shop and reception, private dining rooms and an incredible double-height bar on the 8th and 9th stories, commanding views across the Firth of Forth, over to Fife, and back up across Edinburgh.Tours are available from Wednesday to Sunday, 11am to 8pm.
For cruise ships berthed in Leith, Port of Leith Distillery is a five-minute walk from the berth.
From Queensferry and Rosyth the taxi journey will cost around £35 for the 30 minute journey. Alternatively take train or shuttle coach services into Edinburgh and use the excellent Edinburgh bus and tram services to Ocean Terminal.
