Hi!
I obtained my Breacans from K-A by mail order five years ago, when things might have been different! Last September, I took a special trip out to their Showrooms from central Edinburgh, only to find both their shop and museum closed! Admittedly it was on a Sunday, but all retail outlets and tourist exhibits are open on Sundays nowadays, and I could not have been more disappointed. Later I wrote to the Managing Director about this as there is nothing in their advertising and promotional material stating their opening hours, but I received no reply.
To be fair, when I mentioned this to Adele at our sponsors, KiltStore.net, she contacted the MD (whom she knows well) and he has agreed to give me a personally conducted tour on my next visit to Edinburgh. However, there is still no news on their opening hours!
