The Scotch Whisky Experience at the top of Edinburgh’s Royal Mile have been busy restoring their historic B-listed building which has provided a fantastic opportunity to preserve two unicorn figures which crown the façade of the building.
The unicorns were crafted in the 1800’s, from sandstone, timber and lead. Whilst their spirit is immortal, it transpired that their timber horns were not. Fortunately, the head of facilities and IT at the experience, Ross Morris, is a keen woodworker in his free time. Ross has undertaken the exciting project of creating the replacement unicorn
To mark the restoration of these historic unicorns, we’re giving two people the chance to name these mystical creatures. Two winners will win a pair of Gold Tour tickets to The Scotch Whisky Experience, followed by the specially created The Unicorn’s Ember cocktail and signature Scottish tapas for two people in Amber Restaurant and Bar.
