Join us, and your Ivey Alumni colleagues for a premium Scotch and Whiskey tasting to kick off the holiday season. Registration includes tasting of four different high end scotches led by an experienced scotch connoisseur. Appetizers will be served.
While our connoisseur is still diligently picking some of the best scotches for you to try, below showcases what was featured in last year’s event. The event was sold out in 2017, so register quickly! Attendees must of 19+ in age.
Last Year’s Scotch Features:
- Glenmorangie Signet – This is a showstopper, a big and bold departure for a single-malt brand otherwise known for delicacy. As rich as its dark-amber hue would suggest, it puts an extra 'o' in 'smooth.' Syrupy-dense, the Glenmorangie Signet, bottled at 46 per-cent alcohol, gracefully weaves together a rich tapestry of fine Scotch nuances: dried fruit, toasted nuts, dried cereal, cocoa, vanilla, coffee and toasty oak.
- Bruichladdich Black Art – Working with the very finest American and French oak to explore that most esoteric relationship between spirit and wood, Black Art is Master Distiller Jim McEwan's personal voyage into the heart of Bruichladdich. Deep amber with a hint of cloudiness; lifting the veil of peat smoke allows a clear impression of un-peated Islay character. Rich malty sweetness and a salty/savoury tang on the palate is true Islay style; smooth and silky mouthfeel, with alcohol presenting with just a whisper; the finish is long and satisfying.
- Highland Park 18 Year Old – Named as 'Best Spirit in the World' by F Paul Pacult of the Spirit Journal in 2005. Pacult wrote: 'After 25 years' experience, it fits my profile of what makes a perfect whisky, which is to say it's totally in harmony, there are no rough edges and everything is melded together brilliantly.'
- Midleton Barry Crockett Legacy – Introduced by Irish Distillers in 2011 as part of the relaunched range of pot still whiskies, The Barry Crockett Legacy is named for the Midleton master distiller and combines bourbon cask matured whisky with some from a new American oak barrel. A great entry into the Midleton line-up which has been showered with awards since it first appeared on the horizon.
