Lindores Abbey Distillery Virtual Tasting Event – Where It All Began

When: Wednesday 2nd November 2022
Time: 7PM AEST
Where: Zoom Video Conference

Lindores Abbey is officially recognised site of the first recorded distillation of Scotch whisky. It was back in 1494 that King James IV commissioned Brother John Cor at Lindores Abbey to make aqua vitae with eight bolls of malt. After a break of almost 523 years the stills at Lindores Abbey Distillery are flowing. Twenty years in the making and we can now enjoy a whisky again from where it all began.

Thanks to the Australian importer Wonderland Drinks we’ll be joined by Lindores Abbey’s Elliot Wynn-Higgins. Elliot is the Cask Custodian at the distillery and he’s been there since 2018. His experience with the Lindores spirit and use of casks to create an outstanding whisky is truly remarkable. Elliott will discuss the history of whisky and how the distillery has captured this in their product as well as explain what to expect from the distillery in coming years. We’ll also get to experience samples that are currently not available anywhere in Australia which you will have the chance to purchase.

Get your ticket quick as we only have 40 of these spaces available.
