Here at the George we’re excited  to announce a limited edition collection of exceptional quality whiskies. Specially crafted to celebrate Scotland’s glorious return to the World Cup. Every bottle sold donates to Tartan Army Children’s Charity.

Glen Garioch  28 

This 28 year old single cask of Glen Garioch has been waiting as long as the fans. Finally bottled, it is a tribute to the loyalty of the fans.

After nearly three decades resting in an ex-American bourbon barrel, this cask has proven to be an exceptional companion to the spirit. The influence of American oak gently weaves through the whisky, imparting soft, natural vanilla sweetness drawn from both the wood and its previous bourbon fill. Over time, these notes have settled seamlessly into the Highland distillery’s character, enhancing rather than overshadowing it, lifting its inherent fruitiness and structure while adding a smooth, rounded depth that speaks to the quiet elegance of long maturation.

Lowland 1998

Distilled on the very day that Scotland played against Brazil in 1998 this whisky has been waiting, just like the fans, for our return to the world stage.
Bottled for the Tartan Army, it’s a tribute to the loyalty and belief, and a great way to give back, through the Tartan Army Children’s Charity.

Over 28 years of maturation, this American bourbon barrel has imparted a generous and enveloping layer of vanilla sweetness, becoming a defining influence on the whisky’s character. Drawn from the oak and its previous bourbon fill, these soft, creamy notes integrate seamlessly with the mature grain spirit, enhancing its natural richness while preserving its elegance. The result is a beautifully balanced whisky, where the cask’s warmth and sweetness complement the depth and age of the grain, creating a smooth and cohesive profile.

Tamnavulin 12 

This 12 year old Tamnavulin is a small batch whisky for everyone to enjoy. It is a tribute to the loyalty of the fans, and a way to give back through raising money for the Tartan Army Children’s Charity.

Having spent its years maturing in a traditional hogshead cask, this whisky has been shaped with a light and respectful touch from the wood. The cask imparts subtle layers of soft vanilla, gentle sweetness, and a delicate structure, without ever overpowering the spirit. This restrained influence allows the true character of the distillery to shine-pure, balanced, and unmistakably Speyside in style, resulting in a whisky that feels both authentic and elegantly composed

George IV Bar, Edinburgh, does not take bookings. We thrive on first come, first served and all are welcome throughout the day. On the day we will do our best to accommodate larger groups, but as always we can not promise anything. Pubs have always been this way, communal places where you all mingle. Grab a seat next to someone you don’t know and have a conversation. 

What we do however is offer our space to local  local businesses, offices, retail, museums, tour guides etc for limited bookings where we have space. They are core to the world around us and we want to have a space where they can wind down and celebrate in. You can look in to this by emailing us at: manager@georgeivbar.com
