Whisky Whistle Stop

Don’t know the differences between your Bourbons and Scotches?  Want to appreciate the smoothness of single malts and the complexities of a 12-year-old blend? 

Blame Mad Men – whisky is back, so prepare for an enlightening journey through all the colours of the Johnnie Walker rainbow with a Johnnie Walker Tasting Session.

These Scotch 101 sessions will allow you to pick up handy tips for nosing and tasting the amber hued nectar as well as learning the recipe for the perfect Scotch whisky cocktail.

Your Johnnie Walker ambassador will be your tour guide through the whisky house’s linage while you quaff quality drops like Johnnie Walker Red Label cocktails and learn the delicate intricacies of the prestigious Black, Green, Gold and Blue labels.

Once you’re the full bottle on the offerings from the Johnnie Walker embark on a sensory experiment with comparing other whiskies from Ireland, America and Canada.

After navigating you way along the malt and barley highway, try your hand at creating whisky cocktails like the Rob Roy and Blazer.  Don and the team at Sterling Cooper Draper Pryce would be proud.
