Ealain Gallery Drymen
Whisky Club at Ealain Gallery, Drymen - Bunnahabhain Distillery
7.15pm for 7.30pm start £5 per session
To join us on the night, please book early to avoid disappointment.
Bunnahabhain Distillery plays host to this month’s Whisky Club. This will provide an opportunity to taste the distillery’s distinctive 18-year-old malt. It is considered by many to be an Islay classic. We should say that this whisky is a personal favourite of the Ealain Gallery. The whisky is characterised by subtle tastes of honeyed nuts, liquorice aromas and a salty tang.
