For whisky lovers who want to learn more about whisky, the speaker was very educational and knowledgeable. The whiskies were well selected. It was a very good evening, and we didn't see the 2 hours go by! 🙂

A good introduction to the history of whisky. As far as tasting is concerned, perhaps choose whisky that is a little less common, but it's still very good for discovering and learning to taste.
