Get immersed in a Japanese whiskies journey with a whisky expert who has lived in Japan and knows the master distillers!
The goal? You will learn how to better know, compare and enjoy Japanese whiskies!
This session is very interactive, quite fun and educational and you can ask any question!
Being at home is probably the best spot to learn how to taste: you are undisturbed, you know your environment and then can focus much more easily into the whisky tasting. Your senses will be at work optimally to experience these great expressions.
How does this work?
- After you book, you receive your kit with instructions on how you should prepare.
- Two days prior the session, you receive the zoom link to connect to computer, iPad, smartphone. Better with a webcam.
