DIAGEO WHISKY TASTING – WEDNESDAY 16TH MARCH 2016

We’re starting off the new tasting year in style with Colin Dunn, Whisky Brand Ambassador for Diageo, who has always been a whisky hero to us and was recently named Scotch Whisky Brand Ambassador of the Year in Whisky Magazine’s Icons of Whisky Awards 2016.  Passionate, knowledgeable and with his own inimitable style, an evening with Colin is always something special – and you never quite know what’s going to happen…

Colin will be selecting whiskies from Diageo’s large portfolio to present, and as this includes distilleries from the Highland, Speyside, Coastal, and Islay regions this is a great chance to taste and learn about a wide variety of styles.  Also in the line up will be a real treat in the form of two whiskies from Diageo’s very limited Special Releases of 2015 – the Caol Ila 17 year old (a more unusual unpeated version) and the Lagavulin 12 year old cask strength (an absolute beauty).  Plus Colin has promised to bring along something a little bit different for us all to try…

Tickets are £15 per person and will be available from 1.15pm on Tuesday 16th February via the website.  Please note, no bookings will be taken before this time and the maximum number of tickets per booking is 6.

Details

Admission to the tasting is by ticket only, and the whiskies tasted will be available to purchase on the night.  Tickets are £15 per person, and this also entitles you to a discount of £3 against a bottle of one of the featured whiskies if bought or ordered on the night of the tasting.  Tickets are very strictly limited, and allocated on a ‘first come, first served’ basis.  Arkwrights reserve the right to restrict the number of tickets per customer and as these tastings usually sell out within hours it is best to book as soon as the tickets are released.  To buy tickets just log on to www.whiskyandwines.com from 1.15pm on Tuesday 16th February and place an order for the number you require (up to a maximum of 6). Please note that tickets can not be reserved without payment and are non-refundable. N.B. We have negotiated special rates at Stanton House Hotel for anyone who wants to stay overnight after the tasting – just quote ‘Arkwrights- whisky tasting’ when booking by ‘phone or email.
