About Whisky and Witches
Whisky and Witches is an immersive, musical whisky-tasting experience staged at The Mother Superior Cave as part of the Edinburgh Festival Fringe. Running for 150 minutes, the experience blends enchanting music and storytelling with the history of whisky, including the role women played in shaping that history — and how some were framed as witches. Guests enjoy five drams provided by sponsor The Scotch Malt Whisky Society, and the ticket also includes a day pass to visit a SMWS site. Age guidance is 18+ and tickets are priced at £55.
Why see this show?
An evening that is part theatre, part history lesson, part tasting — all held inside a cave. If you want something genuinely different from the standard Fringe programme, spending 150 minutes with whisky, music and stories of women wrongly branded as witches is hard to beat.
