You will also receive advice on when our training courses and tasting evenings will be run in your area. Initially the courses and tasting evenings will only be run in Johannesburg, Cape Town and Durban.

All tasting evenings will consist an initial formal tasting of 6 or 7 specially selected whiskies, which will be advised in advance of the tasting. There will also be an opportunity at each evening to taste from a selection of 20 or more other rare aged blends and malt whiskies which have been collected over time to enhance your whisky knowledge.

The cost of attending tasting evenings will vary, depending on what is being tasted and the venues chosen for the tasting. Full details of the tasting evenings and their cost are available on the website and will be updated regularly.

It is essential that bookings are made for the tasting evenings and that payment is made in advance. As attendance at the tasting evenings will be limited to 25 people and venues need to be booked, cancellations will only be accepted up to 48 hours prior to the event. Members not booking and paying in advance will not be able to attend tasting evenings. Refunds will only be made if the above cancellation timings have been adhered to.
