Bringing 5 whiskies to life through storytelling, music and tales of womens role in alcohol history; sharing why some were framed as witches
About this Event

5 whiskies, 5 stories and 10 haunting songs.

An experience stimulating all the senses to create the ultimate experience of the water of life.


Travel with us to a realm where we breathe life into wonderful whiskies through folklore, storytelling, outstanding tasting notes, and hauntingly beautiful music. On this journey we will venture through women’s undeniable significance in the history of brewing and distilling, and unveil how and why some of them were framed as witches.

This critically acclaimed whisky experience has garnered several 5-star reviews, two award-nominations, and has sold out more that 25 shows in Scotland, Northern Ireland, Norway and Denmark, including Edinburgh Festival Fringe, Fèis ìle, Belfast Whiskey Week, and Tunsberg Whisky Festival.

Whisky & Witches is the brainchild of Danish singer, composer and OurWhisky Foundation Mentee Christine Kammerer and whisky aficionado Jane Ross, owner of bars The Mother Superior, the Powder Room, and the False Widow in Edinburgh.


“The best Scotch Whisky Events are not just about the whisky in the glass. I was privileged to attend the most wonderful event involving stories, myths, humour and beautiful haunting song.

One of the best events EVER. I am still captured by the memory of the evening.” JOHN MCCHEYNE, GLOBAL BRAND AMBASSADOR, SCOTCH MALT WHISKY SOCIETY

"This has to be the best whisky tasting I have ever been at!" MARGOT MILLER (audience)

“An expert blend of whisky, storytelling and song.“ BROADWAY BABY

"If you are a woman in whisky, this will set a fire in you!" ELSIE CINNAMOND, DRINKS CREATIVE, HOLYROOD DISTILLERY

“Some of the best two hours of my life! Their knowledge about whisky, music and folklore is second to none!” BROADWAY WORLD
