To make the most of your World of Whisky Show experience, consider these tips :

Tip 1: Start Light

Ease into the experience by beginning with lighter whiskies, such as those with softer, floral, or fruity notes. This helps warm up your palate gradually and prepares you for the bolder flavours ahead.

Tip 2:Pace Yourself

Take your time and savour each dram, allowing the flavours to fully develop on your palate. It’s a marathon, not a sprint, so enjoy the journey without rushing through the pours.

Tip 3 : Use the Spittoon

Don’t hesitate to use the spittoons provided at the event. It’sa common practice at tastings, allowing you to experience more whiskies without overindulging.

Tip 4 : Stay Hydrated

Drinking water between tastings not only keeps you hydrated but also helps cleanse your palate, so you can fully appreciate each whisky’s unique flavour. Plus, it ensures you stay refreshed throughout the event. You will get your own bottle and there are water bubblers as well.

Tip 5: Ask Questions

Take the opportunity to engage with the exhibitors—they’re experts who are passionate about their craft. They’ll love sharing insights about their whiskies, from the distilling process to flavour profiles, making your experience even richer.
