WHISKI Continues Expansion in the Capital

Last week saw Edinburgh’s newest restaurant, bar, and bistro open its doors called WHISKI Rooms on The Mound in Edinburgh. Whiski Rooms is the glamorous new sister venue to Whiski on the Royal Mile who were awarded Whisky Bar of the Year 2011 at the Dram awards this year.

The new venue is a hybrid concept consisting of a restaurant, bar, and bistro, specialist whisky shop with its own dedicated tasting room. With stunning views over the Edinburgh, it is a great place to enjoy food and have a lovely cocktail or whisky. It offers a great range of wine, Scottish craft beers and Scottish ciders, and over 300 whiskies. “We have more semi private areas in WHISKI that can be booked and these should be attractive for groups dining together” said director Anne Still

“Our food offering is British using the best locally sourced produce, meat comes from the Buccleauch estate, fish caught daily from a Edinburgh fisherman, and all dishes cooked freshly on the premises” said director Gary Still.

“We get continual requests for whisky tastings at WHISKI therefore decided to have a dedicated whisky tasting room. With the WHISKI Rooms we have created a specialist whisky shop where our customers can buy the whiskies they have tried in either bar or after a tasting session. We are arranging a full programme of tastings this summer” said director Anne Still.

The original WHISKI bar on the Royal Mile is the current 2011 Whisky Bar of the Year and has received a string of awards since its inception in 2007. The owners drinks offering has a premium Scottish selection of craft beers, ciders and over 300 whiskies. The shop aims to always stock everything on offer at both bars and a lot more with ~ 500 different whiskies. 

Whiski Rooms will be showcasing local talent with regular live music after food and will provide a full experience for everyone to enjoy. In these recessionary times, it is great to see continual investment in the Capital focusing on celebrating the very best that Scotland has to offer and we believe that WHISKI Rooms will showcase the very best on offer in Scotland from whiskies, craft beers and ciders, local food and great hospitality.
