DirectRooms.com – Scottish festival presents the finest whiskies from Speyside

DirectRooms.com announces that people with an appreciation for fine whisky should head to Speyside in late April to take part in the region’s annual festival that offers six days of whisky filled activities.

For over ten years The Spirit of Speyside Whisky Festival has been educating visitors in the art of whisky drinking and explaining the complex processes that go into developing the best quality drams. In depth tours of local distilleries will take place each day and there’ll be plenty of drinks to sample along the way to make sure visitors are not left feeling thirsty.

The festival looks to educate people into the finer points of what to expect from different malts and as well as the liquor, events will also offer dinners and tasting courses where visitors can sample local foods such as freshly caught Scottish salmon. Live music and dance is set to feature on many of the nightly entertainment evenings where there’s sure to be a few renditions on the bagpipes and songs from local bands.

People using Aberdeen hotels can also sign up for classes in woodcarving, whisky and chocolate tasting as well as arts and crafts exhibitions. The festival takes place from 28th April to 2nd May 2011 and activities run on each day and most evenings.

Lek Boonlert, marketing head at DirectRooms.com commented: “The festival is well known and attracts many whisky enthusiasts even those from overseas.
Hotels in the area will be close to full occupancy so prebookings are highly advised for anyone attending.”
