Our host for this evening Richard will guide you through some delicious Island Whisky.

About me – I’ve been a fan of whisky for about 12 years. I started drinking when lived abroad in Slovakia and they are into their strong alcohol. Unfortunately, over there their local spirits were just not to my liking but it was rude not to have something with friends, so I turned to whisky, started reading up about it and introducing others to it. I hosted a huge whisky-tasting party once a year for friends, colleagues and clients and promoted and introduced as many people to different whiskies to as many people in Slovakia as I could whenever I could purely out of love and enjoyment. I did this without any payment. Purely for the love of the craft. I prefer single-malt Scotch but am open to new experiences from varied places. Island whiskies are typically smoky and strong and I introduced a fair number of people to that variety while abroad. It wasn’t for everyone but many people I introduced to it now consider it to be their absolute favourites.  Richard.
