Ok the 1st Malt Whisky tasting event is now a goer.

First event will be on Sunday 15th December and will be at Starks Park in the Raith Suite where the bar will be open and Sky sports can provide background entertainment.

To get us up and running 4 single malts have been promised as donations for the inaugural event and Starks Park's own caterers have offered to provide a pot of stovies.

The event is open to all over the age of 18 be they football fans or not! Tickets are priced at a modest £15 (for 4 malts and a plate of stovies!) and we plan to start around 1pm. Tickets will be on sale in the Raith Suite and 200 club on match days but numbers are limited to 25 and are expected to sell quickly as around a dozen have already been requested.

The first whisky tasting event was a great success. We sampled some very fine malt whiskies with good company and good food.
The day was hosted by Johnston Scott who was very well informed and entertaining as he described in detail each whisky.
Thank you to Johnston for organising this event and to John Simpson from BWS Catering for supplying the food.
A great day had by all and I'm looking forward to the next one!!

Sunday October 3rd 12.30 pm
200 Club at Starks Park.

After an enforced break due to some sort of global virus outbreak. I'm happy to say the Spirits of Excellence Malt whisky club is back in action in 2 weeks time.

The Sunday lunchtime following the Killie game on the Saturday we will be taking on the elements of the Tomatin distillery.
As well as whisky tasting the 200 club bar will be open selling other libations of choice.

The event is not quite a sell out yet there being a mere four tickets remaining. So anyone fancying a wee dram, something to eat and a we bit of discussion, here's yer chance to join in.
Food drink and Craic all for £20, what's not to like?

PM me if anyone is interested.
