Inverurie Whisky Shop Reviews 

Yet another amazing tasting experience hosted by Mike and organised by the team at Inverurie Whisky Shop. Can’t recommend highly enough!

Great night out

My husband and I attended for a tasting on the day of my husband's 30th birthday and what a treat it was!

I initially enquired with Annette at the store explaining that I was struggling what to do on a Monday for my husband's milestone birthday. She very quickly got back to me and was very helpful. I explained I didn't know much about whisky and was not sure how organising a tasting would work. I was able to tell the shop what whiskies my husband did and didn't like, which certainly gave it a bespoke feel to it.

She reassured me that I could have a gin tasting and my husband could have a whisky tasting at the same time

During the tasting you initially go into the shop which has a wide selection of whisky, rum and gins along side cider and some lager/beers.

When I saw what gin they sold, I knew I was in good hands (ngl was blissfully clueless about the whisky).

The tasting took place upstairs and was conducted by the owner of the shop, who was friendly, very knowledgeable, and clearly shows a passion for what he does!

The room itself is a cosy nook with an "impressive array of whiskies" (direct quote from my husband). The selection chosen for our gins and whiskies was a good diverse selection and certainly felt tailored to us.

We left feeling knowledgeable on gin and whisky and definitely learned things to take away!

We were under no obligation to buy anything from the shop afterwards and certainly it felt that there was no expectation for us to buy something. ...Naturally, we came away with a bottle of my fave gin and a bottle of whisky 😋 🤣

I couldn't be more happier with the service we got and I've already recommended the tasting service to many friends!

Superb selection of high quality malts for our tasting, fantastic host and we all had a fine day … thank you

As a regular customer unfortunately I can’t recall which visit this review relates to!!! However, it doesn’t matter because every visit is top class.
I’ve recently been fortunate to meet staff Annette and Janice, both are super friendly and knowledgeable. Also most importantly I don’t find them to be “pushy”.
I would feel comfortable to pop in have a chat and ask about any new products.
I think it’s important for a local shop to make people feel comfortable and that’s why I choose “local”.

I received a Rum Tasting Experience Voucher for my birthday recently from my son and son-in-law for Inverurie Whisky Shop.
Not my first time whisky or rum tasting but first time here and I was blown away.
All three of us had an exceptional time and felt that we received great advice and tips as well as a great laugh and some fantastic rum.
The bar area is warm , homely and very well stocked and looks like the ultimate Whisky/ Rum Hoose. The advice from Mike and banter was brilliant and I would thoroughly recommend.
Well done everyone involved.

Wanted 20 each miniatures of whisky and at first wine, both with personalised labels, for March 2025 celebration. Although not local to me I went to the inverurie Whisky Shop. Staff nice and helpful and Annette advised gin (raspberry flavour) instead of the wine. Gave Annette a photo of my label idea and a few days later was sent samples of my request. After agreement for the labels I was sent photos of the finished articles. Within a week I was contacted so I could uplift at my leisure.

Whisky for Christmas was Well Received.
very good selection of Whisky and Gin!

Great service and advice on choosing the best malt whiskey for the occasion

Fantastic shop
Great service as expected.

I would give more than 5 stars if I could! Excellent speedy online service - much appreciated!

5 star service always!

Great advice and a relaxed shopping experience.

Quick and excellent service

The staff very helpful. Lots of good advise.

Good range of products and knowledgeable staff. Have shopped in-store and online.

“5 stars – If I could give more, I would! The whisky arrived in record time, faster than I could even say ‘Islay’. The box came with zero unnecessary packaging – just my bottle, ready to be liberated from its cardboard prison. I didn’t even bother with a glass; just a quick twist of the cap, and I was ‘sampling’ right from the source. It’s clear these folks know their customers well – straight to the door, straight to the heart (and liver). Thank you for the best no-fuss, straight-to-the-point delivery experience. I’ll be back soon… maybe tomorrow. Slàinte!”

Great service, price and very quick delivery. Thank you
