A tons of suggestion circulate on the internet how you should have your dram – on ice or with a few drops of water, drink it from a glencairn glass, don’t wear strong fragnance as that overtake the whisk(e)y’s aromas and your nose is going to be in trouble when you will try to identify the notes and so on. What other factor can affect your tasting experience? The place.
Many state that the best experience is to have it in a distellery where it came from. I just closed my eyes for a moment and I was wondering about to stand at a harbour in Islay and holding a peaty dram in my hand… but considering a fact that there is a 2700 km distance between me and the scotch producers I would stay at the ground of reality and choose the easy to go options.
Bars
If you manage to find a pub what stepped out from the Jim – Jack – Johnny triangle and has a more sophisticated offer list, then you are lucky, but still unlucky as their prices at the ceiling. If you don’t want to settle the invoice with your real estate at the end then I advise to find another way to broaden your tasting experience.
Tasting events / festives
This is how I was thrusted in the rabbit hole. A few old friends invited me to the Whisky Show in Budapest, I was like okey, this alcohol is really not my cup of tea but who knows I might find someting consumable. I did. And I was marching against the stereotypes as being a woman I fell in love with the heavily peated Islay malts. You will find here not only the best drams, but information - the ambassadors will happily share their knowlegde and passion with you.
If you are a beginner – so I am now – I highly recommend to attend one of the thematic tasting event also where the presenter will lead you through the whisk(e)y making process or let it be different regions/continents or certain brands’ products. It’s a great experience at a reasonable price.
Home
2020, the year of a pandemic. One sentence is running from the tap: „Stay home”. If you already found your way in the world of whisk(e)ys then probably you won’t order someting what not really match with your style. You can arrange your small tasting sessions, only one crucial equipment needed: a glencairn glass. Keep experiencing – what dram goes well with which cheese (my personal favourite is the Talisker 10 – blue cheese duo) or what chocolate is the perfect match. Or what about a BBQ accompanied by a bourbon? The amenites of a home is also countlesss, so it can’t be your excuse.
Nature
Are you fed up sitting among the four walls all day? Strech your legs, get on a bike and find a natural gem where mankind did not leave a scar yet. For some reason in most people’s head there is a thought that the whisky can be consumed at a fancy bar what heavy with leather and wood with full of elegant, suited up men at their 50s. Take it easy, just lay down a blanket on a grass, kick off your shoes, enjoy the warming sips and the rays of the sun. Sláinte!
