Description
Hailed as the ‘Whisky Evangelist’, founder Eddie Ludlow has an extensive knowledge of the whisky world, working for the likes of Arberg & Glenmorangie and Oddbins and acting as an IWSC whisky judge since 2008. Passionate about sharing his love for the ‘Water of Life’, The Whisky Lounge encourages like-minded individuals to develop and nurture their interest in whisky in an informal but informative environment. The Whisky Lounge runs some of Britain’s largest whisky festivals every year, as well as the widest network of tasting events in the UK.
Held at some exotic venues around the country, your full day of learning at The Whisky School will teach you the complexities and intricacies of one of the most beloved spirits of the world. Discover whisky’s ancient origins from the heart of Scotland, and learn the processes involved in creating the golden spirit. Your whisky expert will teach you about the different production style of regional whiskies, as well as an in-depth look at wood maturation and the new-make spirit.
After some historical background and a two-course light lunch, enjoy the rich smells and flavours of around 20 to 25 different whiskeys, learning what sets them apart and how to discern their unique flavours. A truly hands-on experience, you will even get a chance to blend your very own whisky. Great creative as you choose a brand name for it, before you take it home to share it with your friends.
After your full day of whisky knowledge you’ll be put to the test in a final exam - after all, this is a whisky school. After successfully passing the exam, you’ll receive a signed Whisky Lounge Whisky School Certificate as proof of your hard work. Receive a Glencairn Whisky Tasting Glass to take home with you, another momento for a memorable day.
