Cocktail Options Required - The information shared on the tour was very interesting but we felt that there was sufficient time at each stop where we had a cocktail that we should have been given options as to what cocktail we wanted. At one stop only one person drank the cocktail as it was a very strong whiskey cocktail which does not appeal to everyone and we should of had an option.
