Join Catherine from the Tasting team for an Introduction to whisky, just in time for Burn’s Night! This 50-minute masterclass will introduce the history of whisky in Scotland, the distillation process and the different styles created. Pour your preferred dram to savour during the session.
Whisky is one of the world’s favourite and most famous spirits and in this 50-minute masterclass, Catherine will be explaining why as she introduces the history of whisky in Scotland, details the distillation process and shares more on the different styles created.
