Eimverk Distillery, Gardabaer

Had a great tour/tasting (we were the only two there so it was a private tasting). They are really knowledgeable about their product and go into great detail about how they only use ingredients from Iceland. We took a cab from Reykjavik and it wasn't too bad, you can talk the bus but then you spend more time in the bus. If you use the taxi app you can order right from there and pickup is fast. All cabs take credit cards.

Fantastic tour of a gin and whiskey distillery. The guide was excellent and we learned a lot from him. We got to try 12 different spirits, from gin to smoked whiskey. Definitely worth the price and I would highly recommend this to anyone visiting Reykjavik with an interest in whiskey, as you will get to try a style of whiskey you won't find anywhere else.

What a little secret this place is! Everyone we met at the distillery welcomed us with open arms, showing us and the other couple on the 4pm tour a wonderful time! Such genuine, generous, and friendly people - which made the 11 samples we got to try taste even better! We took a taxi from Reykjavik - well worth it to not miss out on the gin, brennivin and whisky tasters! Such a shame they can't sell their produce right there because we would happily have bought one of each! They do have lots of other items like gin and whisky glasses, tshirts, hip flasks, whisky coffee and lava rock whisky stones if you want souvenirs! We bought a bottle of Vor gin, a Vor gift set and a Floki smoked Young malt at duty free before our flight home too! One of the best memories from our time in Iceland and our new found favourite spirits! 10/10

Richie was an amazing guide with plenty of enthusiasm and passion for what he does. His explanations of how they make their whiskey along with the ingrediants used locally in Iceland were informative and detailed. Overall, this was a great experience and as a tour/tasting goes, ranks in my top three next to the Yamazaki distillery in Japan and KaVaLan distillery in Taiwan.

After research we ended up booking a tour while we were in Reykjavik post COVID restrictions (June 2021). I am so glad we did, I am a big fan of trying whisky/ey from all over the world. My niece and I did the tour and were very pleased with it. There were 6 people in total, Us from Wisconsin, an older couple from Colorado, and a younger couple from New York. Our guide was amazing, had great knowledge and stories of the history of the distillery. He knew "everything" about the history of Whisky in Iceland (they were the first distillery in Iceland in 2009 ;) ). Got to take a look back stage and see the "new make" and the aroma of the new make is incredible. We got to try everything they produce. The tour even started with the host making each person a Gin and tonic to drink during his introduction. My only criticism is that they did not have a great selection of merchandise while we were there (and yes its a very petty criticism since their goal is great spirits not merchandise) but would have loved a nice hat with their logo. I will be going back again when i take another trip to Iceland. I would highly recommend you check them our while in town, you wont regret it.
