Reel Time Events

As an aperitif to dinner, to provide some lively interjection during the courses or as a well deserved wind down after a long day’s conference. We can organize you a whisky tasting that is informative, (mildly) intoxicating and most of all FUN!

Whisky drinking is a wonderfully social pastime. It is a fantastic way to let guests visiting Scotland experience some of our unique culture; a deeper  understanding of whisky will  enable them to fully appreciate the experience when they next savour a wee dram.

We work with master tasters, who have proved their whisky knowledge. From whisky buyers, specialist whisky retailers, to people who write for whisky magazines. They have a wealth of understanding, knowledge and of course sparkling public speaking skills.

We think the presentation and delivery of our whisky samplings gives them an edge over our competitors. We pride ourselves on the informative tastings we provide, but do not lose sight of our main goal, to give clients a lively whisky experience that they can feel a part of. We encourage guests to participate and some questions can provide fascinating talking points for the group.

The thing that makes our tastings stand out to clients; we are an events company putting on a lively interactive experience combining whisky to drink, whisky exhibits to peruse at the same time as approachable whisky tasters who will guide you through the passion of the whisky.

We developed our service as an introductory step into the world of single malt whiskies. We will take your clients through a short whisky connoisseur session, by giving them what we consider to be the most interesting information on the subject. Including;

  1. The production process.
  2. A guide on how to taste whisky.
  3. A wee bit of history.

We will also help guests look for the distinct aromas, flavours and colours that they will detect in their complimentary drams. We will Take your clients on a sensory voyage through the whisky regions of Scotland.

We have several different packages that we can offer, depending on the number of guests and budget. Please enquire for details.

We run most of our events in English. We can also do tastings in French and in German to suit our clients.

We will not give away a running order – as too many people are trying to assimilate our product…please email or call for details and we will tailor the tasting to suit your knowledge and requests.
