Whisky Forum - Johnnie Walker Voyager- London

Hi, I won a competition to London, an invite to a party aboard the Johnnie Walker Voyager Yacht, on the 17th of July.
We get flights down from Scotland and 1x night in a hotel but we are extending the stay for an extra 2 nights.

I was just wondering if anyone on here was attending?
Also can anyone recommend any decent whisky bars?

Cheers

I hope the party went well STUDOGG37, did they have the new John Walker and Sons Odyssey available to taste, i had heard they were launching/promoting this during the John Walker Voyager European tour.

Hi John, the party on Wednesday evening was amazing, we had a dram with a JW ambassador, drinking Blue label first.
Later on we tasted the new Odyssey with him, our group was the only ones to taste this.
I think having kilts on helped Smile

Met a few good people on board and it was a fantastic evening, the after party was at Whisky Mist and it was free drink in the vip area Smile

I hope you can get a taste of the Odyssey John as it was really nice.

We went to the Albannach bar on Friday, a wee bit over priced for the whisky so I just had 1 beer and a cocktail for the good lady.
