What out clients say about us…

We used Simply Whisky to provide a whisky tasting theme for an informal business networking event organised for UK and Chinese business members of the China-Britain Business Council (CBBC). Over 150 guests from business and government attended and were treated throughout the evening to expert knowledge and rousing anecdotes from Simply Whisky’s qualified connoisseurs.

As knowledgeable as they were entertaining, Simon and Franchi helped create a fantastic atmosphere that added a unique and memorable dimension to the event. Guests, regardless of their own whisky knowledge, found them highly amusing and easily accessible. I would strongly recommend anyone wanting to add an alternative and charismatic theme to any event to try out the boys at Simply Whisky!

The Simply Whisky team was a big hit in our office. Our guide was incredibly passionate and knowledgeable. Some of our employees were not big fans of whisky but thoroughly enjoyed the tasting and learning about the history as well as what foods to pair with what whiskies. The company was professional and friendly from beginning to end, having given us a heads up on what to expect and were timely when it came to sending and receiving the glasses and conducting the tastings. They took care of all of the details. We highly recommend!

It was a delight to have Simply Whisky attend our product reveal event. Their flexible approach enabled us to tailor the activity to match our needs and timeframe. The whisky tasting was the perfect balance of great fun and information and was certainly the highlight of the evening for us all!

Simply Whisky presented a tasting session at our stand at a conference and exhibition in Glasgow. Simon and Franchi were fab and thoroughly entertained the crowd around our stand for an hour about the joys of whisky and how it can complement cheese and chocolate. Simply Whisky were the talk of the whole conference and a complete hit – causing other exhibitors to be green with envy! We had declamations of Burns, teleportation to the Isle of Islay and of course brilliant facts about whisky, it’s production and character. Not to be missed!!
