Join Ed Wicks DipWSET for a roundup of world whiskies/whiskeys from off the beaten path.

Event details

To celebrate World Whisky Day, Ed Wicks DipWSET has put together a truly outstanding line-up of whiskies/whiskeys from countries that might not immediately spring to mind. Ed will guide you through six premium samples, each carefully selected to showcase the sheer quality that exists outside of Scotland, Japan or the USA. So, step outside of tradition and try bottles from a diverse range of regions as we dig into the ethos of each distillery and how this is transformed into these rare and sensational spirits.

Example spirits*

  • Abasolo Mexican Corn Whiskey
  • Oxford Rye Whisky 004 Graduate England
  • Starward Fortis Single Malt Australia
  • Kavalan Sherry Oak Taiwan
  • Mackmyra Moment Efva Sweden
  • Amrut Kadhambam 2019 Release Batch 14 India.

*Supported by The Whisky Exchange

Ed Wicks has been working in the drinks business in some form since he turned 18 years old. A long stint as a cocktail bartender laid the foundation for his love of spirits. It was during this time he decided to study the WSET Level 2 Award in Wines and Spirits qualification, which also ignited his passion for wine. Within a few busy years, he had completed both the Level 3 and Level 4 Diploma in Wines.
