Dear Members,
Our friends at Irish Whiskey Awards have kindly extended us some invites to this year's judging process. This will be an in-person event and there are two dates to choose from, so please ensure you register for the correct day. Since slots are limited and the event is free of charge, please only register for one session only to allow other members the opportunity to sign-up.
Details below:
When: 23rd & 30th of August
Time: 12:00 - 3:00 PM
Judges will be able to blind taste 2-3 different categories of whiskey in the tasting session. Water, glassware, score-sheets, spittoons etc. will all be provided.
As with all years, there various guidelines and criteria in place: no more than 1cl measures of each whiskey per taster; we encourage the use of spittoons and drinking plenty of water; take breaks between categories and if you start the judging of a category, you must score every whiskey in that category in the same sitting, otherwise all scores for that section will be void.
The score sheets must be returned to the Celtic Whiskey Shop staff member supervising before a taster leaves.
