Lichfield Festival Friends “A Taste of Scotland”

An evening with tutored whisky tasting, plus entertainment and refreshments with a Caledonian flavour.

I’m not sure what I was expecting from the whisky tasting experience, but the event was a full on Burns night.  From the haggis being piped in – by a real piper – to the singing of Auld Lang Syne at the end it was a brilliant evening. The whisky talk was detailed but fun was interspersed with music and poetry, and some very nice Scottish related snacks. There had been talk of a Gay Gordons at the end, but the hall was far too full for dancing – maybe next time. If there’s a repeat of this I’ll be there. 5/5
