Jim McEwan Whisky Experience
A whisky master talks you through a tasting, including the experimental drop distilled from the most heavily peated barley possible.
Overview
There’s whisky and then there’s whisky — but can you tell the difference? Jim McEwan certainly can. A veteran of over 50 years in the business, working his way up to Bruichladdich’s master distiller, he knows cheap liquor from the top-of-the-line, put-hairs-on-your-chest tipples certain to get mouths watering.
McEwan is stopping by The Gresham to share knowledge from a life lived with delicious amber spirits — accompanied by a sampling menu, of course. For two hours, one of the best-known figures in the industry will discuss whiskies many aficionados have only dreamed of, including the experimental Octomore 6.1, distilled from the most heavily peated barley humanly possible.
It is little wonder, then, that The Jim McEwan Whisky Experience is being dubbed a once-in-a-lifetime treat. When else will the only three-time winner of the Whisky Distiller of the Year award impart his tricks of the trade, after all, with drinks to match?
