The experience begins with mixologists walking the guests through the preparation of the Auchentoshan-based cocktails before they were given the opportunity in creating their own.

The cocktails work on fruit syrup and vegetable reduction. A personal favourite is the one prepared with Auchentoshan Three Wood combined with fragrant coconut pandan reduction, gula melaka syrup and passion fruit.

Auchentoshan’s brand ambassador Jamey Merkel guided everyone in the whisky tasting session. Guests were introduced to the many regions and the types of oak casks: Bourbon, Oloroso Sherry and Pedro Ximenez Sherry, with each providing different flavors, colours and robustness.

“When tasting whiskies, take your time comparing its looks, smells, and how it taste on the palate and also the finish,” said Merkel.

For beginners, the  light body 12 Year Old is probably for you. If you’re after something a little bit stronger, go for the 18 Year Old. Nurtured in American bourbon cask for over eighteen years, the rich golden colour whisky finishes with a rounded smoky tobacco flavor.

My personal favorite within the beautiful collection from Auchentoshan is definitely the 21 Year Old. With exceptional smoothness, the whisky aged in American bourbon and Spanish sherry casks offers a bunch of flavors and a long finish.

The whiskys were paired with canapes as well. Some enjoyed the whisky with sweet bites while some found new heights of deliciousness when tasted with savory items prepared with scallops, prawns and smoked fish. Both the sweet and savory items brought out the delicate flavors of each expression.
