After two years of hiatus, the Whisky Lounge Newcastle Whisky Festival returns to The Civic Centre on Saturday 26th February – and this is an event not to be missed.
This isn’t your usual whisky festival. Speaking to Co-Founder, Amanda Ludlow, she noted: “If you haven’t been to one of our festivals before then you are in for a treat. If you have then you know, as well as the usual shenanigans, we have a few more surprises for you with live demonstrations and much more.”
From sampling the best home-grown whiskies from Scotland to varieties from all corners of the globe, the Newcastle Whisky Festival attracts the finest distillers from as far afield as India, Japan, the USA and even close to home, here in England.
So, how does it all work? Amanda added: “It’s simple: You get a whisky tasting glass which is yours to keep then all you need do is approach any of the exhibitors stands, ask politely for a dram and you shall receive a tasty glass of whisky. Every exhibitor knows their whiskies inside out and it’s well worth taking advantage of this knowledge.”
