One of the best parts of my current role, is the opportunity to host whisky tastings for The Scotch Malt Whisky Society and their members. These events are always informal, fun, entertaining, full of info and slightly curious. The next public event I’m hosting for them is no different…
All About Smoke (and Blues)
Tuesday 20th September
The Scotch Malt Whisky Society
28 Queen Street
Edinburgh
7pm til late
All About Smoke (and Blues) promises to introduce you to the slightly sinister side of peaty whisky and to the musical talents of Booker’s Guitar, an acoustic blues duo from our fair city of Edinburgh. (Check them out here:
Booker’s Guitar on Facebook)
I’ll be presenting 5 smoky whiskies from the excellent inventory of Single Cask, Singe Malt Scotch Whiskies held at The Scotch Malt Whisky Society. These will be punctuated by stories from my recent trip to Islay, as well as with stories and techniques I’ve picked up from all over the world during the last 8 years of Whisky Adventures. And if that isn’t enough, this will all be accompanied by a fine supper from the Society’s Michelin Guide recommended kitchen at 28 Queen Street.
If you feel this is of interest and you are a member of The Scotch Malt Whisky Society, then get on to
