The Guild had a very jolly evening at a virtual whisky tasting (real whisky!). Guild member Greg Dillon of greatdrams.com provided five different whiskies for us to try. Greg acquires selected whiskies by the cask and bottles them either as single cask single malts, single grain or blended Scotch, in addition he sometimes finishes the whiskies in different cask styles such as those previously containing Bourbon, Port, Sherry, Wine or even beer.
We enjoyed the evening so much we held a gin tasting a few weeks later!

It features events with privileged access for Members and their guests, ranging from opportunities to dine in London’s finest Livery Halls, to less formal activities. Our Annual Banquet is a highlight of the Guild’s calendar and attracts members from all over the world.
