Thanks to the Kingston Single Malt Society and KYC member Conrad Falkson, KYC is pleased to announce a unique opportunity for all of our scotch loving members. Gordon & MacPhail is one of Scotland’s best regarded whiskey bottlers and two of their executives will be coming to Kingston to introduce our members to their whiskeys. This event will feature Richard Urquhart, Gordon & MacPhail Export Executive, and Ian Ewan MacKintosh, Gordon & MacPhail Chief Operating Officer leading the tastings! Chef Neill will be preparing a Four Course Dinner, accompanied with five amazing Benromach Single Malt Scotch Whiskies. Only one of these whiskeys is available in Ontario and they are: · BENROMACH 10 YEAR OLD · BENROMACH 15YO · BENROMACH ORGANIC · BENROMACH PEAT SMOKE 05 · BENROMACH SASSICAIA The Benromach distillery is owned by the Urquhart family. Richard Urquhart is the 4th generation of this whisky legacy. His great grandfather John Urquhart apprenticed at the age of 14 to James Gordon and John Alexander MacPhail (Gordon & MacPhail; estb 24 May 1895). He subsequently became a partner and finally sole owner. John and his family were initially regarded as eccentric in buying up barrels of whisky and storing them, as opposed to blending them and selling for immediate profit. He passed his passion and knowledge of whisky on to subsequent generations. Today, Gordon &MacPhail owns several world’s oldest Single Malt Scotch Whiskies, such as The Glenlivet 70 years old! In 1993 the family purchased their own distillery: Benromach in Forres, Speyside, in the NE of Scotland. We are very fortunate to bring you the opportunity to meet REAL EXPERTS right here in Kingston. This dinner is on Sunday 8 May 2016, cocktails start at 6:30pm and dinner is at 7:00pm. Tickets are limited and half are already gone, so book now to avoid disappointment. Tickets are $65 per person and can be reserved with James at bar@kingstonyachtclub.ca |
