Fantastic selection of Whisky - great staff…read more On our way south we passed Tomintoul and needed a quick break. It was more of a happy accident we walked into this store. And what a place this is! A huge selection of mostly Whisky. From the big names to the small destilleries. Can't believe no one before me reviewed this place on Yelp. The staff probably knows everything there is about Whisky and is very friendly and helpful. Learned a lot more about Whisky (like the 1-3 drops of water). There is Whisky for really any budget. Starting from more affordable ones (around 15-20£) and up and up. There are some Whiskys available for tasting and if you are interested in buying a specific bottle you might can - if available - have a taste first too. We boughts a package of small bottles (3 pcs) for 40£ and a bottle of the "Old Malt Cask" for 89£ (distilled 1992). What a fantastic Whisky. We didn't know this brand and tried some others around that price class. This one here we liked the most. Golden colour, a slight vanilla taste, very smooth. A great shop, great staff and our dog was welcome too! Of all the Whisky shops we visited this one here had the best and most interesting selection.

This is just another general Victoria Wine store. The shop is very well laid out in sections of…read morewine, spirits etc. The prices are what is to be expected though I usually find Tesco cheaper for spirits but they can be well priced if there is an offer on and of course they have a better selection of wine than some Tesco stores. There are only a few members of staff but they are helpful when you ask them.

I loved my whirlwind trip to the U.K. but I was in search of something I was struggling to find -…read morewhisky I could not buy in the U.S. I wanted to bring back a few bottles for my whisky loving friends and I didn't simply want something that was cheaper than I could get at home. If that was the objective I simply could go south to Oregon to buy cheaper alcohol. No, I wanted to find something unique. And I had a hard time finding it. While my friend bought expensive bottles easily enough I wanted something I could give easily without spending an arm and a leg. Yet everywhere we went I didn't find anything until I went here. The Whisky Shop lived up to its name and provided tons of whisky. On top of that they had small barrels that offered small bottles of whisky you could only buy there. I ended up buying quite a few bottles as I determined I also wanted some for myself! Everyone there was so helpful. After seeing how much I purchased they offered to store the bag while I continued my tour of the city. They offered me samples of everything I wanted to try and they provided great suggestions. I was immensely pleased. I would highly recommend the Whisky Shop!
