Win two pairs of tickets and enter whisky heaven

Scottish Field has teamed up with its friends at The Whisky Lounge to offer two pairs of tickets to whisky heaven this weekend.

More than 30 producers, makers, and bottlers from across the world, will set up stall for The Whisky Lounges Edinburgh Whisky Festival at the Assembly Rooms on Saturday, 16 June, for a one-day event.

Distillers from as far afield as Taiwan, India and Japan will be offering visitors the chance to taste whisky across a range of flavour profiles.

And you can be there with money-cant-buy golden tickets, where guests will have the opportunity to take part in a series of special masterclasses throughout the day.

As part of its mission to entice new fans to the world of malt, this year The Whisky Lounge is inviting novices to take part in a Whisky Baptism – a special beginners tasting and festival tour which will lead them to the first Whisky Heaven.

Upon reaching the pearly gates, guests will be able to meet and take part in exclusive Q&A sessions with gods and goddesses of the industry, including Scotch expert, Charles Maclean; Distell Master Blender, Kirstie McCallum; and director of prestigious whisky society Keepers of the Quaich, Annabel Meikle.
