An Expertly Curated Whisky Line-Up
Thanks, Beau, for putting on another cracking line-up of memorable drams, from rare Macallans to your own bottling of Ledaig, to name but a few. You can tell you genuinely take joy in seeing people enjoy great whisky, sometimes sharing drams from your own collection that you’d rather let others experience than keep to yourself.
Response from the operator: Thank you for the fantastic review! We’re delighted you enjoyed the selection of drams and the variety of whiskies on offer. It’s always great to bring together such a memorable line-up, and we look forward to welcoming you back for more great whisky experiences.

Top Notch Experience
Had a great time. Our driver Willy is very personable and entertaining. Former constable and had a lot of local knowledge and stories to share. He is even chums with the king! (It’s a funny story). Beau is incredibly knowledgeable about the whiskeys of Scotland and we had a great tasting prepared for us. Would recommend highly.

Outstanding whiskys
Had a great time with fantastic whiskys! The place was immaculate, the breadth of knowledge around whiskys was outstanding! You would really be missing out if you liked whiskys.

Great Whiskey education
Great experience. Beau was very knowledgeable and informative. Don’t be concerned that it is in a “liquor store.” It is a specialty liquor store like none you’ve ever seen. It was well worth the cost.

Whisky tasting at it's best!
Grand Drams, hosted by Beau, provided a fantastic evening of whisky tasting and education after our corporate day at Cabot Highland. We arrived to a beautiful set up of fine whiskies and were walked through the tasting with a breakdown of production and aging of each spirit with conversation on the complex flavour and aroma. A grand evening with Grand Drams.

Why this scores 64
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Private Whisky Tasting in Inverness: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Inverness.
How much does Private Whisky Tasting in Inverness cost?
+
Prices start at $109 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Inverness usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Private Whisky Tasting in Inverness take?
+
Plan for about 0.9 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Inverness is not rushed.
Is Private Whisky Tasting in Inverness worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 64 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 21 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Inverness, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Private Whisky Tasting in Inverness?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Private Whisky Tasting in Inverness suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 0.9-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Private Whisky Tasting in Inverness?
+
Around 7 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Inverness can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Inverness and add a light layer if any part of the 0.9-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Private Whisky Tasting in Inverness start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Inverness within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Inverness?
+
On Outty we rank every Inverness experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include The Ultimate Isle of Skye Day Tour from Inverness, Isle of Skye and Eilean Donan Castle Day Tour from Inverness, Loch Ness, Outlander & Urquhart Castle from Inverness. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Inverness?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Inverness?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.

+

+
