Three options but how do you start a Whisky evening? One of my main concerns when embarking on a whisky evening is the choice of my first dram. Whether it’s at an event like the Whisky Stramash or going to the pub with friends I’m always torn between two thoughts – do I try the…

The tasting area and the guests arriving On the 31st of March, I hosted the first official Lady of the Glen Whisky tasting at the Whiski Rooms on The Mound in Edinburgh. The weather that day was insane, I think we endured more seasons than 24; rain, sleet, snow, sun, blistering sun and lots of…
