Burns Night Celebration Screening
22 Jan – 27 Jan 2021
Burns Night, 25 January, is a celebration of the life and poetry of the Scottish poet Robert Burns. It is traditionally an evening (or few) where friends get together share good food, stories, poetry and of course a few good drams.
Even with everyone pretty much locked up this year due to Covid-19, there’s no reason not to continue the tradition and what better way to celebrate all things Scottish than joining us for celebration of all things Whisky!
To launch our film, we’re holding a virtual on-line celebration. We’ll be screening our film over 6 days and each day we’ll be joined by one or two of the films cast – some of the greats of the whisky world – who will share their experiences of their craft. We’re also going to have limited edition one-off tasting kits which follow the film – what would a Burns Night be without a good few drams?
We’ve got the friends, the stories and the drams. Come and join us!
