The whisky specialist will start the tasting by offering guests the chance to taste the spirit neat whilst talking through the history behind the spirit and how to prepare it. Guests will then be shown how to make three simple cocktails, pair the whiskies with sodas, then conclude with a chocolate and cheese food pairing.
Commenting on the news, Andrew Riding, Drinks Experience Manager at Waitrose Wine Tasting at Home said: “We’re thrilled to be bringing a truly memorable experience to people’s homes. Whisky is a drink that is often enjoyed with a fizzy accompaniment, with some finding the drink overpowering. This tasting shows just how versatile whisky can be by showing guests simple and delicious cocktails and delicious food pairings.”
