I would have given this 15 stars if I could! Aaron was great! The tour was informative and very interesting. The whiskey...delish.

It’s a wonderful walk featuring Aaron’s interesting stories about Pitts history about whisky and all the beautiful buildings in downtown. The weather was a little chill, but Aaron was very thoughtful, he prepared some hand warmers for us and some hot cider & tea with whisky. It’s definitely worth it and we learned a lot as first-time visitors to Pitts. He also recommended some good original Pitts restaurants. We tried Square cafe and Primanti Bros, and they were so gooood!

Aaron was fantastic. We learned some Pittsburgh history and saw some cool buildings, and he did a great job of tying that into events in history to hiw that relates to whIsley, both past and present. You get some neat samples at the end, which is a bonus, but this is really a history tour and how it relates to whiskey
