Holyrood Distillery, Whisky distillery near Holyrood Park, Edinburgh, Scotland
Located in a converted railway building, Holyrood Distillery operates with one wash still and one spirit still, producing 53,000 liters of whisky annually.
The facility opened in 2019 as Edinburgh's first single malt whisky distillery in the city center after a century-long absence of distilling traditions.
The distillery experiments with heirloom barley varieties and local ingredients to create spirits that reflect Scotland's distilling methods.
The distillery welcomes visitors daily from 11:30 AM, offering guided tours that cover both whisky and gin production processes through multiple experience levels.
In October 2023, Holyrood Distillery marked its entry into the whisky market by releasing its first single malt whisky after four years of production.
