Eden Mill St Andrews is a distillery-based visitor experience operating in Edinburgh, Scotland, with strong connections to the Eden Estuary and St Andrews. The venue offers a range of guided, expert-led tours and tasting sessions that focus on both gin and whisky. Visitors can choose distillery tours, masterclasses and intimate tasting experiences led by trained hosts who present the production process and tasting notes.
The distillery experience includes behind-the-scenes tours, immersive Whisky Rooms and historic basement mixology sessions. Sample formats described by Eden Mill include guided tastings of gin and whisky, perfect-serve demonstrations, and hands-on cocktail masterclasses where guests learn to make classics such as the Bramble, Heather Honey Golf Gin Martini and White Lady. Several experiences highlight Eden Mill's coastal gin range and limited-edition single malts from the Art of St Andrews series.
Eden Mill St Andrews also provides specialty experiences such as cask-access tours with tastings straight from the cask, access to the Distiller’s Lab and tasting finishes in the Lookout Bar. Retail discounts are sometimes offered as part of certain experiences.
