Quite a poorly organised event that reminded me of being at a buffet in a Tier 2 Chinese city.
I won't go as far as to say that the event was over-sold as this would imply that the organisers were not fully aware of the numbers coming. The layout was woefully inadequate for the number of attendees with small tasting tables located in cramped corners.
The "special events" such as blind tasting (which was blind smelling, not blind tasting) was 5-7 glasses attended to by one woman, providing some "fun" for the couple of hundred people present.
One barman for whisky cocktails.
One barman for other cocktails.
2 staff attending each whisky tasting table and each table was typically 3 deep in waiting.
Terribly organised event from the lack of information on the website to the whisky available to the lack of staff to the overcrowded room. I will not attend again.
