Whisky tasting night 2015
Discussion
Deadline has passed, you'll have to wait until next time if you missed it!
Following the success of the PH Whisky tasting last year, we have another for 2015!
The idea is to have a relaxed evening, drinking and chatting whisky with an expert – and a bit of a laugh with like-minded PHers. It doesn't matter if you're a connoisseur or a newbie.
So…
The details
What do I get?
OK, I’m in - how do I sign up?
What happened last year?
Please note I have to pay for the entire booking in advance. This means that there is no option for a refund. However, if you cannot make it we may be able to find someone to take your place and get a refund that way.
Hope you can join us...
PAID!
I don't actually need the money until Oct 11, but paying confirms your space

Following the success of the PH Whisky tasting last year, we have another for 2015!
The idea is to have a relaxed evening, drinking and chatting whisky with an expert – and a bit of a laugh with like-minded PHers. It doesn't matter if you're a connoisseur or a newbie.
So…
The details
- There is a maximum of 20 places in total
- The cost is £70 per person
- The tasting is at TWE Vinopolis (The Whisky Exchange) - London Bridge is the nearest tube
- Wednesday 21 October 2015
- It starts at 19:30 and typically lasts for around 90 minutes, but they’ll stop a bit longer if you’re really keen to chat
What do I get?
- An expert to guide you through what you’re sampling
- 6 drams of single malty whisky aged over 18yo (we’re trying very hard to get something that very few people will have tried)
- The chance to meet the people you’ve been chatting with for years on PH about whisky!
- Hopefully learn something and have a good laugh at the same time
- The opportunity to part with more money to buy whisky (bottles, or pour your own from the cask)
- Perhaps a bit squiffy…
- If we can get 15 people again, the quality of what we can sample improves!
OK, I’m in - how do I sign up?
- Send me a PM via PH (preferably with the subject heading “Whisky tasting”) with your real name, so I can contact you!
- I will reply with bank details in the next few weeks, and you can transfer the money (I don’t do PayPal, sorry)
- In the event it is more popular than expected, it will be a first come, first served basis. I will maintain a “waitlist” in case someone drops out
- All bookings and payment MUST be completed to me by Sunday 11 October
- Your place is not confirmed until you have paid!
- Wait impatiently until 21 October…
What happened last year?
- See the thread here - http://www.pistonheads.com/gassing/topic.asp?h=2&a...
- Ended up with 6 interesting, varied samples and a surprise 7th!
- Quite a lot of laughs
- Somewhat reduced productivity the day after...

Train harder before hand?
Vinopolis is closing this year...
Hmmmmmmm. Vinopolis is closing this year...
Put me down then. I'll just have to try and moderate my alcohol intake!
We need 6 as a minimum, and I suspect a few more may sign up - so no problem if you do decide not to come.
Just reading the thread from last year. What brilliant memories - we started off as a room of (largely) strangers, and in the end were laughing and chatting as if we had all known each other for ever. Hope some of the same crowd can come again, and looking forward to meeting and making some new friends too.
Dead excited. I've booked the following day off work, assuming it's as good as last time.
