Join us for Jarrolds Burns Night Celebration Dinner, an evening steeped in Scottish tradition and fine dining. Our five-course menu, a symphony of traditional classics pays homage to the finest in Scottish cuisine.

As you savour each course, immerse yourself in the rich notes of whisky from local distillers, the English Distillery, as they offer a flight of whisky and guide you with their expertise through the whisky tasting. A skilled bagpiper will weave through the evening, echoing the spirit of the Scottish Highlands and delighting our guests.

A truly unforgettable evening of gastronomic delights and a wee dram discovery; all to commemorate the Scottish bard.

Tickets: £100 includes whiskey tasting and five-course menu, accompanied by Scottish entertainment.

About the English Distillery:

Started as a retirement project for distillery owner Andrew Nelstrop’s father, the family quickly realised that whisky making was what they wanted to do. They now produce a range of award-winning peated and unpeated whiskies at St George’s Distillery in Norfolk, leading an increasingly revitalised movement of English whisky distillers.

HOLYROOD DISTILLERY TASTING:

After landing the cover of Whisky Magazine in October, following the release of its award-winning inaugural whisky Arrival, Holyrood Distillery is well on its way to earning its “whisky stripes.”

As you may or may not know, the founders of SMWS Canada are also the co-founders of Holyrood Distillery, a new single malt distillery in the heart of Edinburgh.

To celebrate the arrival of Arrival into the Canadian market, Distillery Manager Calum Rae is travelling across the pond to share it with you, along with some single cask samples and experimental bottlings.

At only $20 per ticket ($15 each if you buy two!), this is not to be missed (plus, Calum is super-excited about coming to Canada for the first time, even though it’s in January, so let’s show him what a great whisky community there is in the Okanagan).

SIGNED LINDORES ABBEY DISTILLERY TRIO PLUS GLASSES & PIPETTE CHARITY COMPETITION

(ALL PROCEEDS DONATED TO CHARITY)

The Collectors Club is a brand new whisky based competition website launched this year by Scott & John Lang. They are two friends who share a serious passion for our aqua vitae and want to make all kinds of new, old & rare whisky accessible to everyone & anyone, for the price of just a single dram!

The Collectors Club are proud to be asked to help a friend of the Club, Richard Cameron. Richard is trying to raise money for 5 specific charities who have helped his son Mackenzie battle a rare autoimmune condition (the same condition that sadly led to the loss of his Daughter at just age 7). Mackenzie has fought against the odds to live life to the full. He has dealt with many challenges that adults would never cope with. In January 2021 Mackenzie contracted COVID. He was in intensive care and on a ventilator for 7 weeks. He suffered 2 cardiac arrests and 2 respiratory arrests. He fought very hard and managed to stay with us. As part of his recovery he had to learn how to walk again. He was supported along the way by Richards local community and raised over £2500 for charity, something which we think is nothing short of remarkable! He also won Young Achiever Award 2021 in the Scottish Health Awards.

Thanks to Lindores Abbey Distillery, who have been extremely generous to donate a fantastic 3 bottle plus extras prize for the lucky winner, we are honoured to be the hosting platform for raising the funds, but we can only do it with your donations! Tickets for this competition are just 99p and there are 999 up for grabs.

If you would like to donate what you can to Richard’s cause, click the link to go to www.thecollectorsclubcompetitions.com . You will find the Lindores Abbey competition on the home page, alongside all of our other current competitions for all different types of whisky. Each competition has a time limit and they will display in ascending order. Every single penny of the Lindores Abbey competition will go to CHAS, one of Richard’s chosen charities. Hopefully with your support we can raise the maximum amount possible! The entries for this competition will close on December 21st at 8PM and you can watch us draw it (plus other competitions) live on our facebook page from 7PM.

All the best, and good luck!
