Our tasting will feature a range of Scotches selected to give you a taste of different characters and a healthy dose of fact, history and humor. With any luck, terms like “single malt,” “blended,” “peaty,” and “Speyside” will make perfect sense. We guarantee to make learning fun!

$50 Per Person includes Glencairn Glass with Games Logo

THIS EVENT IS HELD OFF-SITE. TRANSPORTATION IS PROVIDED. DETAILS BELOW:

The tasting seminar is held at the Great Smoky Mountains Heritage Center, located approximately 1.5 miles from the festival venue. The Heritage Center provides transportation in their tour buses, which will be available 30 minutes prior to the tasting times. Board the tour buses in front of the Townsend Visitor’s Center (beside the Highland Dance Pavilion). The buses depart the festival venue 15 minutes prior to the tasting, and will return to the Festival after each tasting. The address of the Great Smoky Mountains Heritage Center is 123 Cromwell Dr., Townsend, TN, should you miss the shuttle.

AND A FEW MORE HELPFUL HINTS:
1. Our tastings are informal and may be unlike other events you have attended. The objective is not to sell you a bottle, but to entertain while we give you some insights as we all experience some fine scotches.

2. You may want to have a light meal before you attend. Garlic and spicy foods are discouraged as they may deaden the senses a wee bit. You wouldn’t want that.

3. No children, please, or adults under 21 years of age.

The tastings tend to sell out quickly, so get your tickets now. The link to purchase will stop working once the seminars are sold out. Tickets should be printed after purchasing as there will not be a scanning device available at the tastings.
