Whisky Tasting in Glasgow

We were delighted to be asked to host a whisky tasting experience for 200 delegates from all over the world at a conference at Glasgow University recently. We presented 4 single malt whiskies from all over Scotland, each representing regionality and different flavour profiles.

We set up four whisky stations around the room so that delegates could move around easily, speak to us about the whiskies and about the whisky industry before moving on to the next dram. I was joined by two industry colleagues, Justina and Rebecca to help engage with as many conference delegates as possible during the evening.

At the beginning of the tasting I spoke briefly to the whole group to explain how the tasting would work and a little about the Scotch whisky industry in general and how single malt whisky makes the incredible journey from field to table.

It was great to be able to engage with so many people at such a great event and to enthuse about all things Scotland and single malt Scotch whisky. Our tastings showcase Scotland’s gift to the world and are a great way to encourage people to get together, have fun, socialise and relax.

Glasgow Whisky Tasting – The Single Malt Whiskies

We selected four single malt Scotch whiskies to help demonstrate both regionality and the difference in flavour profiles. Two of the whiskies were from the Isle of Islay where Justina and I used to work. One of the Islay whiskies was smokey / peaty, whilst the other was rich, maritime and fruity. The other two single malt whiskies were from the Highland region and Speyside.

Here is the set list for our whisky tasting experience in Glasgow:

1. Tomintoul 10 year old Speyside single malt whisky 40%abv
2. Glengoyne 12 year old Highland single malt whisky 43%abv
3. Bunnahabhain 12 year old Islay single malt whisky 46.3%abv
4. Caol Ila 13 year old Islay single malt whisky 43% bottled by Gordon and MacPhail
