Drams Through Time: A Historical Whiskey Masterclass

Journey through whiskey history with guided tastings that reveal how the spirit evolved across centuries, set in our historic bar.

Travel through centuries of craft, culture, and celebration with our Historical Storytelling Whiskey Masterclass, an experience that brings the history of whiskey to life through flavour and narrative.

Guided by a history lover and whiskey specialist, this masterclass traces the evolution of whiskey from its earliest origins to its modern-day expressions. You will explore how tradition, innovation, law, technology, and global events shaped the spirit we know today, all while tasting a curated lineup of whiskeys selected to represent key moments in its journey.

Each dram is paired with a story, the rise of ancient distilling, the birth of regional styles, the age of smugglers and moonshiners, the impact of prohibition, and the renaissance that ushered in today’s golden era of whiskey. Together, these moments paint a vivid picture of how whiskey evolved across continents and centuries.

Set within the historic sandstone chambers of The Doss House, the surroundings add depth and authenticity to the experience, creating the perfect backdrop for an evening of storytelling and discovery.

This is more than a tasting. It is a journey through time, told one dram at a time. Spaces are limited, book today!
