Virtual Whisky & Gin Tastings

Virtual whisky tasting

Since lockdown commenced in the UK, we have managed to alter how we deliver our whisky and gin tastings to be able to cater for more people in places in more engaging ways through private – and public – virtual whisky and gin tastings on Zoom. 

These have turned into something we not only love doing but something that has managed to engage so many more people than we otherwise would be able to with traditional offline tastings – especially as through the comments function we are able to answer questions even if people are not comfortable asking them out loud meaning everyone can have their say on the conversation and have their burning whisky / gin questions answered as we go through. 

Why not book a virtual whisky tasting or virtual gin tasting for:
Virtual company Christmas parties
Virtual birthday parties
Virtual company social events
Virtual team building 
Virtual client engagement
Virtual corporate entertainment
Virtual stag or virtual hen parties
And any other reason for a great night in…

They are hosted in an informal way with everyone invited to ask questions, talk about their flavour notes and generally talk about whisky. 

Typically, depending on the tasting and how talkative people are, the virtual tastings last between 60 and 90 minutes, and occasionally longer! 

We can create packages to suit all needs
5 x 25ml whiskies, all limited edition and only available from us
4 x 25ml whiskies & 1 x 200ml bottle of one of our limited edition whiskies 
4 x 25ml whiskies & 1 x 500ml bottle of one of our limited edition whiskies
* please note that package availability changes depending on stock levels

Then we have optional extras too; a Glencairn official whisky glass, pipettes, signed copies of my book The GreatDrams of Scotland for each participant.

For virtual gin tastings we typically use a variety of different gins, and rotate them around a lot so there’s always something different (we find people end up booking more than one private gin tasting so we keep it interesting…) and the packs contain 4 x 25ml gins or 4 x 50ml gins and 2 x cans of tonic, these can also have official tasting glasses added too to enhance the experience.

Once the booking has been confirmed, we put together the packs for the individuals taking part and send them out recorded delivery as far ahead of the tasting as we can (to give the post service the best chance to get it there on time) and then the Zoom details are circulated to either the participants directly or to the organiser to forward on – whichever is preferred. Then we simply get on Zoom and have a great night in !

“Greg led an excellent and memorable virtual tasting for one of our key clients. Attendee feedback was exceptionally positive and we were very grateful for Greg’s support, enthusiasm, and flexibility in the event’s organisation. We hope to work with Greg again in the future and can wholeheartedly recommend his tastings.”
Financial Public Relations Consultant, London, UK
"What a superb evening and, as he intimates you were a triumph! Thank you very much indeed. I know that everyone who attended the event loved it and felt that your pitch was perfect and the whole evening worked just perfectly. Simon is not alone in thinking that the quality of the product was great and the quantities were spot on – especially Andreas who ordered two boxes! I saw a bunch of Shipwrights’ hanging off your every word and clearly enjoying themselves. Thank you again, everyone felt that you were a superb tutor and host and I know that Anne has enjoyed working with you too."
Master of the Shipwrights Guild
"A very quick email to thank you sincerely for hosting such an excellent evening last night for the Shipwrights. It really was a splendid occasion and the quality of whisky superb! I very much enjoyed the selection, my favorite being Blended Batch 03. The stories of Ronnie Red Socks were memorable and I have enjoyed reading all about him"
Virtual tasting attendee
“This was such a great idea. The whole thing worked so well, right from ordering, receiving the drams, to the way Greg conducted the live tastings, to the quality of the whiskies. I’ve already signed up for the next one. Please continue to do this when the lockdown lifts!”
Ross, Virtual Tasting
"Great tasting with a great host"
Gary, Virtual Tasting
“Great 90mins spent with Greg online which was very insightful and had 5 amazing drams to boot ! Looking forward to the next one already”
Kevin, Virtual Tasting

Every whisky tasting is tailored specifically to your requirements; be it for ten people or fifty, the experience will be unique to you. There are no assumptions about whisky knowledge level, all your attendees need to bring is an open mind, enthusiasm and a willingness to try new things.

“A friendly and well-organised event”

Anthony, regular attendee

Whisky tastings are great for:

Corporate entertainment / team-building
Client entertainment
In home birthday celebrations
School alumni
Christmas parties
Product launches
Private bar / restaurant / cafe events
Stag / hen parties
and anything in between.

The aim for all GreatDrams whisky tasting events is for everyone to have a great time and enjoy themselves, hopefully they will also find new styles of whisky they like too.

Depending on what you are looking for, each person’s participation typically includes:

“Thanks for the experience, everyone who came enjoyed it, you could tell by the questions they asked and how involved every single person was in each discussion”
Simon, Electric Coffee
