Whisky Month 2014 goes molecular

Tickets go on sale 1st March for a unique molecular food pairing event with Glasgow based company ‘Scotch Broth Events’. Marrying Malts & Molecules is a new multi sensory taste experience, where cutting edge meets – Scotch, science, technology and Scottish produce.

Taking place on 24th May, the event is part Homecoming Scotland’s 2014 Whisky Month, the month long, country wide celebration of Scotland’s national drink.

This ‘Grand Sensory Tour’ will take place at one of Glasgow’s most historic buildings – the Merchants House of Glasgow, steeped in history and an architectural hidden gem on George Square. Glasgow is the beating heart of the Scotch whisky industry and stores over 60% of all Scotch whisky globally within 10 miles of the city.

Top quality, local artisan food producers will be showcased along with local foraged foods in molecular paired canapés, providing dynamic taste sensations with delicious drams.

Participants will also be encouraged to download the event app Showmappr which with real time analytics will socialise and map the audience journey.

Commenting, Ewan Henderson founder of Scotch Broth Events, said ..”In discovering more meaningful ways to pair whisky we explore the molecular affinity between Scotch whisky cask finishes to local artisan produce in delicious new ways like our smoked mussel tapenade, Irn Bru pulled pork and Alba Arancini. With record-breaking exports worth £5.3 billion, Scottish food & drink is going through a new period of enlightenment and we’re here to showcase it with cutting edge experiences.”
