CORPORATE HOSPITALITY
Planning to entertain important clients? Looking to do something a bit different for your staff party?
Whisky tastings are an ideal solution. They’re fun, require no prior knowledge of whisky and they can be tailored to suit your needs.
We offer a range of tastings packages from a straightforward pub tasting of five whiskies through to a full tasting and three course dinner package.
Our tastings are totally flexible. They can last from 20 to 60 minutes, can be held before, during or after a meal, and can be structured round a formal talk or informal question and answer session. They can even take the form of a quiz.
Possible tastings subjects are listed here. This illustrates just some of the areas we can cover in your tasting - but we are happy to discuss other options too.
