Passengers at Edinburgh Airport can now try some of Scotland’s finest drams after the opening of the all new Usquabae Whisky Bar and Larder.
Located in the departures area, the venue features a hand-crafted oak bar and a wide selection of whiskies from Scottish distilleries.
The bar will also offer a variety of premium beers, wines and spirits as well as light food dishes using ingredients from Scottish producers.
The original Usquabae owned by Kevin Doyle’s Caledonian Heritable is based in the heart of Edinburgh’s West End, becoming a popular whisky spot since it first opened in 2015. This is the first addition to the brand.
Gordon Dewar, Chief Executive of Edinburgh Airport said:“Promoting Scotland and everything it has to offer is something we do every day, so having a bar which showcases one of our most famous products is a perfect fit.
“We’re excited to be working with Usquabae and we hope passengers from all over the world take the opportunity to sample excellent Scottish produce, some of our finest whiskies and raise a glass to Edinburgh and Scotland before they go.”
Simon Watson, Area Manager of Caledonian Heritable Ltd said:“We are delighted to announce the arrival of Usquabae Whisky Bar & Larder to Edinburgh Airport.
“Having been based in Edinburgh’s West End for the past four years, Usquabae has been an ever-popular destination for whisky enthusiasts and foodies from all over the world. With a uniquely Scottish appeal and an unwavering commitment to showcasing local suppliers, we look forward to offering a true taste of Scotland for those departing from Edinburgh Airport.
“Expect great fare, rare whisky and a celebration of the best of Scotland.”
