A Warm Welcome


We have been in business since 1998 and focus exclusively in providing whisky tasting events.

Our greatest boast is that many of our customers return time after time. Our secret is we will tailor the event to suit YOUR requirements.

This can range from small intimate groups of up to 10 people to large audiences of over 1000! Whisky tastings are an ideal way of providing corporate entertainment before or after dinner or event. No knowledge of whisky is required at all - only an enthusiasm to participate as our events are both entertaining as well as educational!

We take an enormous pride in creating our whisky tasting service, and hope that you will give us the opportunity to enhance your private or corporate event. We look forward to satisfying your requirements.

We offer all types of whisky tasting.
We are proud to be totally independent, this means we can offer any type of whisky required.

About Us


We have evolved from running our own on-line specialised malt whisky shop and retail outlet to providing events at private or corporate functions.

Our background has given us a great insight into the type of information different types of audiences respond to. Malt whisky has a wonderfully rich heritage which has helped produce the huge variety of single malts available today. A whisky tasting evening will help to de-mystify the complexity surrounding malts and provide an entertaining event to remember.

FAQs



How much does it cost?




Do you need to know about whisky?




Where are the events held?






How long will the event last?






Is there a minimum or maximum number of guests?



It depends on what you require. Our basic price is £10 per head for 4 fine malt whiskies from the major regions to as little as £3 per head, depending on numbers. Our objective is to deliver value for money so we will tailor our service to meet your budget.



NO! The event provides entertainment as well as providing you with a working knowledge of the fine dram. Most of our tastings are to complete novices who are simply looking to pass an enjoyable hour or two, enjoy a dram, learn a little but above all enjoy the occasion.



Either in your location or one we book on your behalf. Tastings are hosted throughout the country. We also travel overseas if required, whisky travels well and so do we!



Normally we would allocate around 30 minutes to the presentation which is a mixture of humour, history and how best to enjoy your whisky. This is followed by the tasting of 4 or more whiskies. If required or time permits we can introduce a blind tasting with gimmick prizes. In total therefore we are looking at just over an hour to up to 2 hours.
We, of course, will fit into your schedule.
We can also simply provide a whisky "on demand" as a backdrop with an expert on hand.




No. We have hosted events with around 10 people to large audiences of over 1000.

"Gie him strong drink until he wink,
That's sinking in despair;
An' liquor guid to fire his bluid,
That's prest wi' grief an' care:
There let him bowse, and deep carouse,
Wi' bumpers flowing o'er, Till he forgets his loves or debts,
An' minds his griefs no more."

- Robert Burns
