Collection: Events in Edinburgh

Frequently Asked Questions

What tasting events do you run in Edinburgh?

We host a range of relaxed tasting events throughout the year, including wine, whisky and craft beer tastings. Many feature guest winemakers, brewers, distillers or importers, giving you the chance to hear their stories while tasting some fantastic bottles.

Do I need to know anything about wine, beer or whisky before coming?

Not at all. Our events are designed for everyone, whether you're completely new to the subject or already have a well-stocked cellar at home. There are no exams, no snobbery and no pressure, just good drinks, good food and plenty of conversation.

Where do your tasting events take place?

Most of our events take place in Canonmills, either in our shop or with nearby partners such as 71 Steps. We also collaborate with some of Edinburgh's best restaurants and venues for special dinners, producer events and one-off tastings.

Do your events include food?

Many do. We love showing how food and drink work together, so a number of our tastings include carefully matched dishes created by local chefs and restaurants. If food is included, it'll always be clearly stated on the event page.

How quickly do tickets sell out?

Some events sell out very quickly, particularly smaller tastings and evenings with visiting producers. If there's something you'd like to attend, we'd always recommend booking early to avoid missing out.

Can I buy tickets as a gift?

Absolutely. Our tasting events make brilliant gifts for anyone interested in beer, wine or whisky, whether they're just starting out or already know exactly what they like. Simply purchase a ticket online and we'll see them on the night.
