Johnnie Walker Princes Street wins world travel award

by Glasgow Report
in Travel


JOHNNIE Walker Princes Street has been named the World’s Leading Spirit Experience by the World Travel Awards (WTA).

The visitor experience for the world’s number one-selling Scotch whisky, which opened its doors in September 2021, is one of Scotland’s leading attractions for international and local visitors.

It was created as part of Diageo’s £185m investment in Scotch whisky experiences, that was designed to put Scotch and Scotland at the forefront of global food and drink tourism.

Since opening, the experience has welcomed over 700,000 visitors with guests from 131 countries across the world, with story-telling and technological design personalising the tour per guest.

Johnnie Walker Princes Street won the World’s Leading Spirit Experience.

It then takes them on an adventure through the Scotch’s 200-year-old history, challenging pre-conceived ideas of how whisky should be enjoyed.

Alongside this accolade, the venue has secured several other international awards this year including: Europe’s Leading Spirit Tourism Experience at The World Travel Awards in October; Transform Magazine’s Best Brand Experience in Europe, and Visitor Attraction of the Year as part of Whisky Magazine’s Icons of Whisky programme.

Located in the heart of Edinburgh, Johnnie Walker Princes Street offers various experiences across its eight-floors, with guided tastings and tours, plus a retail area complete with a Fill Your Own station.

Rob Maxwell, Head of Johnnie Walker Princes Street, said: “Everyone associated with Johnnie Walker Princes Street is enormously proud of this award.

“When we set out to create Johnnie Walker Princes Street, we had the ambition of putting Scotland at the forefront of global food and drink tourism, and this award is recognition that we have made great strides towards that ambition.

“We are now focused on the future and building on this award to make Johnnie Walker, Scotch whisky and Scotland even more successful.”

Malcolm Roughead, Chief Executive of VisitScotland, said: “Congratulations to Johnnie Walker Princes Street.

“This achievement recognises the investment and time that has been put in by Diageo and the team at Johnnie Walker Princes Street to create a truly world-class visitor experience.

“Research continues to show visitors love to connect with the people and places associated with our iconic food and drink.

“Whisky has huge international appeal, and this award confirms the important role it plays in the Scottish tourism experience.”
