Scots are proud of their whisky! Itâs no wonder â after all, the term âwhiskyâ comes from the Gaelic uisge beatha , which translates as the âwater of lifeâ. And anything called the âwater of lifeâ must be worthy of a bit of a celebration, surely?
Our Scotch-tasting tent will feature top distillers from all over Scotland. You can opt for a ticket that provides entry to a whisky class where you will have the chance to try special and rare malts and go on a remarkable whisky journey, or you can simply purchase tokens and try the whisky of your choice!
