Known for their imbibing adventures on

banter to the record-breaking festival
from organisers, The Whisky Lounge at
London’s Kia Oval.

"Which side are you on?" is the theme of
this year’s London Whisky Weekender,
devised by husband and wife team, Eddie
and Amanda Ludlow, founders of The
Whisky Lounge and The Gin Lounge. Eddie
takes on the role of Whisky Evangelist
to Amanda’s Ginfidel and both will take
part in the spiritual battle by taking
on a number of entertaining challenges
as visitors are encouraged to pick a
side.
In its ninth year, The London Whisky
Weekender, is more popular than ever
with people new to the water of life, 65
per cent of attendees describing
themselves as ‘newbies’. Whisky
beginners are encouraged to take part in
a ‘Whisky Baptism’, from which they can
graduate to Whisky Heaven by simply
following an eleven-step guide. The
club-style lounge in Whisky Heaven
allows visitors to chat freely with
whisky ‘gods’ (experts and industry
legends) with some amazing drams
supplied by Scotch Whisky Auctions.
Whisky geeks will also be able to bring
a bottle along on Sunday 12th May for
valuation by Auction expert Tim Forbes.
Commenting on the London event, Eddie
Ludlow said
"As a festival dedicated to whisky we
are always looking a new ways to educate
through fun. Amanda and I are both quite
competitive people even with each other
so this year sees us take on a series of
challenges to let our new fans decide
which is best, Whisky or Gin. We want to
encourage people to shake off any
preconceptions and savour the range of
products on offer - and then pick a
side."
