It is about time for another cask/high strength whisky tasting. Our lastest shipment is overflowing with some cask strength delights that we are very excited to share with you. It has always struck us as quite magical how the addition of a couple of drops of water can transform a whisky. Few things bring us more pleaure than sitting down with friends and playing around with some cask strength whiskies and water and exploring how it changes and so we would love for you to join us.

Virtual Tasting: An Evening at Glenfarclas

Regarded by many as the quintessential Speyside single malt, Glenfarclas is one of the most iconic and well respected whiskies produced in Scotland today. Their style is that of the classic heavier Speyide whisky, with a focus on exceptional sherry cask maturation. Few distilleries have such an extensive range of age statements quite like Glenfarclas and so we are delighted to announce that we will be hosting a live virtual tasting with George Grant of Glenfarclas. George will be taking us through some of the core range as well as a sample from a Family Cask. To join us for this virtual tasting simply purchase a wee Glenfarclas tasting pack and we will send you all the necessary details closer to the time. We are very excited about this one!
