Whisky Focus - Whisky Stramash 2015

Whisky Stramash returns once again to Edinburgh's Surgeons' Hall with the addition of a Friday night event.

Whisky Stramash returns for its 4th year at the Surgeons' Hall in Edinburgh. This year sees the addition of a Friday night event on the 22nd May followed by the usual Saturday 23rd and Sunday 24th May sessions.

Billed as an experience full of mystery, entertainment, comicality and madcap pioneering, the popular two-day experiential event - celebrating Scotland’s national drink - has a host of impressive brands lined up to showcase and sample their whiskies in weird and wonderful ways during the Saturday and Sunday sessions.

Scott Martin, co-founder of Whisky Stramash, commented:

"Whisky Stramash will be back this year with more intrigue than ever and after four fantastic years we’re excited to be adding something completely different with a stand-alone bash on the Friday evening. The night will be completely separate from the Whisky Stramash and guests can expect live music, cocktails galore and generally good fun with a twist.

"We will release more information, including a theme, nearer the time so watch this space."

The Saturday and Sunday sessions will see a host of big players in the whisky world, as well as smaller independents, treat visitors to their various bottlings whilst offering a fun education on their world class drams.

"A number of brands are returning this year including Bunnahabhain, Ledaig, Tobermory, Deanston, Glen Moray, Aberfeldy, AD Rattray and Douglas Laing with Big Peat and Scally Wag. We're also pleased to announce the debuts of Craigellachie and Aultmore this year, a major coup as they don't get very many outings." Scott added.

Tickets for the Whisky Stramash are available to purchase now from www.ticketweb.co.uk with details and tickets for the Friday night event due for release soon.
