Here’s what we’ve got planned for 2025:
NEXT TASTING w/ TICKETS: The Whisky Lounge Festival (25/10)
October 2025
[SOLDOUT] Islay & the Chocolate Factory (Sat 18th Oct, 7:30pm – 9:30pm, York Medical Society)
In our ‘Cocoa & Drams’ series, we found out that people love us combining chocolate and whisky.
At Dream Drams I, we found out that even the staunchest peat hater could be turned (Port Charlotte 21 eh Dee?), so what about a tasting that embraces some of the smokey, peaty delights from Islay and keeps our taste buds excited with delicious paired chocolate?
Our first October tasting will offer you:
🥃 6x whiskies from the island of Islay
🍫 Paired chocolate
We’ve got some exciting treats lined up … (including a non-peated Islay) and continuing our fund-raising for St Leonard’s Hospice, if you make a donation during checkout you go into the draw for a chance to win a bottle of ‘The Classic Laddie’ (RRP £46) kindly donated by Bruichladdich along with a six glass set.
TICKETS: £SOLDOUT

Whisky Lounge York Whisky Festival (Sat 25th Oct, York Guildhall)
The 20th anniversary of the Whisky Lounge means a York Whisky Festival you don’t want to miss! We’ll have a presence at the festival and will also be working with TWL on other excitements as they celebrate their double decade of bringing great whisky to York (+ UK).
TICKETS: Available now from £25.44 (20% discount code YKW20)

No tastings currently scheduled
December 2025
Dream Drams III (Sat 6th Dec, 7:30pm – 9:30pm, York Medical Society)
Our fastest sellout event is back for 2025. After we raised £2k on the night for St Leonard’s Hospice in the 2024 event which was also great fun, this one had to go back into the schedule.
TICKETS: £50-60 (Est.)
