Ready to dip your toe into the wonderful world of Scotch whisky—but not sure where to start? Join us for a relaxed and entertaining evening of sipping, learning, and maybe even discovering your new favorite dram. We'll be led by our cultural ambassador and host, Mr. Gary West from Scotland!This beginner-friendly tasting will guide you through five distinctive Scotch whiskies, each with its own story, flavor profile, and personality. From light and floral to rich and smoky, we’ll explore the wide spectrum of Scotch styles—no bagpipes required (actually, there might be).
What to expect:
A casual, no-snobbery zone—bring your curiosity, not your connoisseur badge
Tasting notes and fun facts to impress your friends later
Light bites to keep your palate happy
Friendly guidance from our whisky host who knows their peat from their sweet
Whether you can already pronounce "Islay" or still think Scotch is just something your uncle drinks, this is the perfect place to start your whisky journey. Come with a friend, leave with a newfound love (or at least a warm glow).
Doors open at 4:30pm, and our tastings will begin at 5pm. The event will end by 6:30pm. Guests must be at least 21 years of age to attend.
