A great way to enjoy whisky is through a Whisky Tasting event.
At Whiskey's Orchard we run a number of different events from private parties and corporate hospitality to regular tastings for anyone or one off events. Whatever you're looking for we can create a tasting event to fit.
Prices depend on a number of factors including location, the number and types of whisky and the number of people attending. Contact us to get a bespoke quote.
Regular events open to everyone are listed in Events or alternatively contact us directly for more information
