We all love Islay!

Whilst the weather is still cold and the nights are still dark, what better style of whisky to keep you cosy and warm, but the rugged, smoky tones of an Islay malt?

We Heart Islay Tasting Series

To celebrate our return to the island later in the year (see below), we have decided to run a limited series in just four venues in the UK for a very limited number of lucky people…

The tasting will feature whiskies hand-selected by Eddie and the team, drawn (and liberated) from the TWL archive library. Feis bottlings from this year and previous years have already been mentioned as well as some other trinkets. If you know Eddie, you will understand being an only child means he doesn’t share well, so this is an awesome opportunity, never to be repeated!

Just to note that the Newcastle leg takes place at the Newcastle Whisky Festival on Saturday 11th March. You MUST have a valid Whisky Festival ticket to take part in this, so don’t forget to buy one of these too if you haven’t already!

We Heart Islay Dates & Venues

Good News for Members!

We are offering 10 spots on each of these tastings free for members. To book in, please email Vicky on vicky@thewhiskylounge.com. This is strictly first come, first served, so get your skates on!

Wanna come to the Fèis Ìle?

For the first time in a couple of years we are releasing a handful of places on our annual pilgrimage to Islay for the Fèis Ìle! Now it ain’t cheap, but we recognise it isn’t for everyone, but for those it is for, you are going to love it! Only 4 places are available on each half of the week. We are also offering 2 full week places for those with a bit more time and money to spare!

If you like life-altering experiences, good company and great whisky, then this is the trip for you! The island is fully geared up during the week for visitors and it really is great fun. Allow us to take the stress of travelling whilst you concentrate on the tastings…

That’s all for now, but have a great week and we look forward to seeing you soon!

Sláinte!
Eddie, Amanda, Rupert, Georgina, Vicky and Guy
