TASTINGS & EVENTS

John Galt, Robertson Fine Whisky Connoisseur generates a new Single MaltScotch Whisky convert My friend and I wanted to learn about whisky before we left Scotland. My thoughts had been to wait til the duty free at Edinburgh Airport. John Galt, a charming whisky expert, recommened that we come to a whisky tasting to savour the “Life’s waters” of Scotland. He stated I could always get clothes and to toss my luggage to make room for some fine whisky. We did attend and are so happy that we had the experience. The 5 choices were: Dalwhinnie, Edradour Caledonia, Glencadam, Glen Scotia and Isla Storm. John’s guidance, descriptions and fervant appreciation of how to savour gave us a rich, deeply Scottish recognition of the elements to tasting. We are both so pleased that we took his tasting afternoon. I learned how to appreciate the peatier whiskies that I would have declined. I did donate clothes to the charity shop and came back to Canada with Edradour 12 year old Caledonia and Edradour Ballechin. These will give me years of reliving the John Galt Whisky Tasting at Robertson’s Fine Whisky Emporium.

Amazing tasting, great price, delicious, and fun! My buddy and I did a whiskey tasting at Robertsons of Pitlochry. John was absolutely amazing! We really wish we would have brought our wives. We tasted 5 Single Malt Scotch Whiskeys and learned so much about how Scotland creates it, what region it's from, and how to properly taste it. John was extremely professional and funny. I highly recommend this experience if you are in Scotland! I have done more than 10 tastings and this was by far the best!

Pitlochry surprise to discover your tastebuds. What a surprise. Recommend by family this was a completely unexpected joy. Looks like a purveyor of fine spirits from outside, which it is, but it’s so much more. John introduced us to Gin tasting. Who even knew that was a thing. Discovered a whole new side of why Gin is like it is. Not to mention I’ve been doing it wrong all these years. Donna can find you a perfect bottle to drink or keep. If you’re in Pitlochry, or within 50 miles, book a visit. You won’t be disappointed. It’s not just Gin, they can enlighten you to Whisky and other delights. Do it, you won’t be disappointed.

Beautiful shop, great tasting and amazing Donna We are a group of whisky lovers from the Netherlands. We arrived on a Thursday afternoon at almost closing time. The lady in the shop, Donna, invited us in. We had a laugh and a few sips and promised we’d be back. The next day we had a tasting. We enjoyed the stories behind the bottles and the great hospitality of Donna. It was a day we never forget! Thanks Until next time! Lots of love from Soosmanet

Welcoming and interesting tasting guide Very nice experience during a tasting with John. A welcoming, personal and interesting guide to single malt scotch whisky.

Fantastic whiskey tasting experience! Had a fantastic whiskey tasting session with John… learned so much and have a new appreciation for the art of the craft. Learned how to better savor the varieties and flavors that each distillery brings to the experience. Highly recommend doing this if you’re curious about Scottish whiskey varieties!

A Pitlochry Essential. This was a highlight of a short stay in Pitlochry. We visited on our first evening and were thrilled there was a music session taking place. Ewan’s advice for whiskies to accompany the music was first class. On our second and third visits, we were hosted and entertained by Donna whose unfussy enthusiasm for whisky was intoxicating. If you know nothing about whisky, you’ll learn a lot in a short time from Donna. If you know a little or more, you’ll still find out so much.

Whisky Tasting Must An unexpected treat. Donna and Scott treated us to a great tasting of whisky and gins. Hospitality was first class. A place you must visit.

Great choice of beautiful bottles of whisky. Beautiful shop with a wide selection of whisky. Many brands are not available in the Netherlands. Be surprised and forget about the offers on the ferry to IJmuiden.

Family tasting session Great family afternoon. John was a great host and the whisky was 1st class. Learned a lot about each whisky. Would highly recommend!!

Whisky with the guys Excellent selection of whiskies and John (our guide) and the owner were both very friendly and knowledgeable! I definitely learned something new about whisky and the tasting was bad either 🫣

Single Malt Scotch Tasting We had a very enjoyable time learning about single malt whiskeys from John. He demonstrated the right way to sample and drink scotch. (Yes, there is a wrong way.) An added bonus was that our table was shared with folks doing a gin tasting, so we got the benefit of that as well. Altogether a well-spent afternoon.

Very good whisky tasting experience We had the most wonderful whisky tasting with John Galt. He explained the Whisky process for a single malt and how to taste whisky. It was a very enjoyable afternoon! The whole staff was so friendly and amazingly wonderful! This is a great place to visit,have a tasting and buy some fabulous whisky 🥃

Great Whisky and Gin tasting experience. Friendly and helpful staff. Best whisky experience whether novice or devoted whisky drinker. John was exceptionally knowledgeable and entertaining. Well worth a visit

Robertson’s - Gin & Whisky Tasting Experience Visited Robertsons while on a short break in Pitlochry. Staff were very welcoming. John was a great host and guided our group through our gin and whisky tasting experience. Very knowledgeable and an experience not to be missed if you're visiting the area. Great shop too for you to bring a bottle or two home with you!

Must stop in Scotland A fabulous tasting curated by John taking us through 5 different whiskeys . He gave us a history of scotch, tasting decorum and introduced us to 5 different whiskeys we don’t often get back in the states. Much better than any distillery tour.

Super whisky shop Ewan is very knowledgeable about all the whisky and tasting sessions to help you choose the right whisky for you. Once again I came away with my whisky order so happy with my purchases. Keep up the good work ewan donna and the rest of the team.

Pitlochry tasting experience not to be missed My husband and I visited Robertsons while on holiday in Pitlochry. Staff were so welcoming. John guided us through our whisky and gin tasting experience, so knowledgeable and not to be missed if you're visiting the area.

If you want friendly, knowledgeable service about local whisky and gin, this is the place Was impressed with the lovely staff who were knowledgeable about the gin and whisky we were asking about. More than helpful to let us taste samples without pressure to buy.

Whisky &Gin Tasting Session Has a whisky and gin ( for my wife) tasting session with John. Very wonderful experience with a very knowledgeable person who knew his stuff for both the whisky and the gin Well worth the cost.

Lunch time tasting Such fun ...John Gault was great..were were a small group of 4 and it was fun , interesting and John was the perfect host

Simply Great What a great shop. Well stocked and with a friendly, helpful and knowledgeable member of staff. We were welcomed (dog as well with a treat) and shown the shop. We were assisted and guided with expert knowledge from Donna. A lovely experience culminating in the purchase of several bottles. An experience we will repeat on our return next year. Highly recommend a visit.

5******** We went for the whisky and gin tasting. I phoned and asked about not having a party whisky as knew that one of the group did not like. They were very helpful and put in a different one. The owner and staff are very knowledgeable. I was so impressed I bought a few drinks and went back the following day and bought more

Whisky tasting at Robertsons - a wonderful way to spend a few hours We had the most wonderful whisky tasting. Ewan was a fantastic host, narrator of stories and a font of information and knowledge in all things whisky (and gin, and rum and casks). We had a super time tasting and learning about whisky. Really great. Would highly recommend. The tasting takes place in a lovely room at the end of the shop with a beautiful log fire and it’s beautifully dressed for maximum whisky appreciation. The shop has an incredible inventory with really knowledgeable staff on hand to help and advise.

Donna is fantastic We had a cocktail making session with the lovely Donna. She was fantastic, and we all had a great time

Bourbon tasting Myself and my brother who are frequent visitors here when in Pitlochry are real whisky enthusiasts, ewan and his team are all very knowledgeable about their products. We were invited to do a bourbon tasting with Lee which was very descriptive and very interesting which has led to my brother and myself gaining more knowledge of bourbon whiskey and production. Although lee won't be there on my next visi as he's going back to America in October if your in town before then pay a visit and enjoy a tasting keep up the good work robertsons of Pitlochry.

Scotch Whiskey Experience in Pitlochry We stopped in Pitlochry for a bite to eat and a visit to the Edradour Distillery. The tasting room was closed but Robertson’s of Pitlochry was open and offered an Edradour tasting. We enjoyed that and much more. It was truly a Scotch Whiskey Experience that every visitor to Pitlochry should take time to enjoy. The proprietor is very knowledgeable about scotch single malts and single grain whiskeys. I thought I was fairly knowledgeable already, but he walked us through a taxonomy of scotch whiskeys that I found totally fascinating. Be sure to check out the town of Pitlochry when you come to Scotland, and while you are there, plan to visit Robertson’s of Pitlochry. If you like scotch whiskeys, you will certainly enjoy this memory.

Whisky and gin tasting experience We booked the tasting experience for 20 adults. 9 whisky and 11gin with Euan the owner and had an absolutely wonderful time. I called and spoke to Euan who was helpful, very professional and delivered in his promises. Euan organised everything. Some of our guests have been to several tasting events and distilleries in their time and found Robertsons to be excellent. Definitely one of the finest tasting experiences in Scotland. Euan taught us how to nose, taste and drink our favoured spirit and to determine what we liked / didn’t like! We found the two hours, fun, interesting and very informative. They have a beautiful private tasting room which seats up to 30, so we had plenty of space. We were also served with a lovely buffet lunch of sandwiches, sausage rolls, skewers etc. Everyone found it the highlight of the weekend and would do it again. It was a fantastic experience, knowledgeable and value for money. Couldn’t fault it!

Wow Wow! We could not get into the fully booked distillery, so the ladies at the (i) center sent us here. We were a bit gun-shy with a US guide. But man did he know his stuff. We have been on many tasting tours, but he educated us mare than most of them have. If you want a good tasting and to learn how to decide what type of Whisky to try, go on this sampling. It is well worth it! K MacKenzie
