Burns Night is coming up on Saturday 25^th January - a good excuse to recite Burns poetry, eat haggis and of course, drink Malt Whisky!

We're celebrating Burns Night with a special tasting featuring:

Deanston 12 Year Old Single Malt Whisky | Highland
With a smooth and creamy sweetness, sumptuous hints of fruit, malty honeyed spiciness and soft vanilla, this crisp 12 year old finishes with a satisfying tingle of cloves.

Glen Grant 10 Year Old Single Malt | Speyside 
Golden in colour with gentle flavours of butterscotch and orchard fruits, the Glen Grant 10 year old is easy on the palate and nose, and remains a tasty and reliable single malt. Ideal for those beginning their journey into the world of single malts.

Finlaggan Eilan Mor Single Malt Scotch Whisky | Islay
The 2015 release from Finlaggan, a brand of whisky from an undisclosed distillery in Islay. The Eilan Mor has been bottled at a higher strength than other Finlaggan releases (with the exception of cask strength), it is intense and highly peated with hints of spicy black pepper.

First watch as they demonstrate one of their favourite ways to cook with cheese and while this bubbles away in the oven you’ll take a taste journey through different cheese varieties from fresh all the way to blue cheese. Learn how each cheese is made and the history behind it and take the opportunity to ask any cheese related questions you may have.
