Barrel & Bond Whisky Tasting, Birmingham (2026)

🥃 First stop: The Caledonian Express! 🚂🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

A cracking way to kick off a stag weekend in Northumberland!

Friday evening saw the group jump aboard our Caledonian Express — a tasting journey through Scotland, exploring six whiskies from across the country, each matched with its own food pairing.

We had a real mix around the table, from gents who knew their wh**ky to a few trying some styles for the very first time — which is exactly how we like it. Plenty of stories, plenty of opinions, a few new favourites discovered, and a great atmosphere from start to finish.

Safe to say the stag weekend got off to a flying start! 🥃

Planning a stag do and fancy doing something a little different to get the weekend underway? Barrel & Bond brings the full wh**ky tasting experience to you, anywhere across the UK.

Another day, another dram… 🥃

Had a brilliant time at the National Restaurant, Pub & Bar Show at Excel London !

It’s always great getting out and seeing what’s happening across the hospitality and drinks industry — meeting producers, discovering new ideas and, naturally, sampling a few things along the way.

A particular highlight was catching up with the team from White Peak Distillery and chatting about their whiskies. Always good to hear directly from the people behind the liquid and learn a little more about what they’re producing.

I also got the chance to sample Johnnie Walker new Red Soul wh**ky— because it would have been rude not to!

Days like this are a big part of what I love about running Barrel & Bond. There’s always something new happening in the world of wh**ky, and getting out there, meeting the people behind it and trying new releases gives me plenty of inspiration to bring back to my own tastings.

A cracking day in London — and a few more whiskies added to the ever-growing list! 🥃

Had an absolutely fantastic afternoon celebrating a very special 70th birthday with an amazing family! 🥃🎉

The tasting was organised as a surprise by the birthday boy’s daughter-in-law (who proudly admitted she was the only English one in a family full of Scots! 😄), and it made for a brilliant afternoon of laughs, stories and, of course, wh**ky.

One of my favourite moments was watching everyone’s reaction to the food pairings. There were plenty of raised eyebrows at first, but by the end of the tasting everyone was pleasantly surprised by just how much the right food can transform a dram.

That’s exactly what Barrel & Bond is all about—bringing people together, creating memories and showing that wh**ky is far more than just a drink. It’s an experience to be shared.

A huge thank you for inviting me to be part of such a special milestone. Happy 70th once again, and here’s to many more celebrations! 🥃

Thinking about celebrating a birthday, anniversary, retirement or family gathering? I’d love to help make it one to remember.

🥃 What better way to round off an unforgettable trip in Scotland than with a dram in hand?

It was an absolute pleasure to host a wh**ky tasting for the fantastic alumni of Goodenough College during their reunion at . Their final evening began with a journey through Scotland’s national spirit, exploring six exceptional whiskies, each served with a food pairing to bring out the flavour and share the stories behind each distillery, and the rich history that makes Scotch wh**ky so special.

The group were an incredibly entertaining audience, full of laughter, great questions and plenty of enthusiasm. Watching everyone discover new favourites and share a dram together is exactly what Barrel & Bond is all about.

To make the evening even more memorable, the tasting was followed by a traditional Scottish cèilidh—a perfect finale to their Scottish adventure. 🍂🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

A huge thank you to everyone at Goodenough College for such a warm welcome. A special shoutout to Across The Pond Mom - Amanda Talboys for arranging the occasion!

Safe travels, and here’s to meeting again over another dram in the future! 🥃

🥃 Building Connections, One Conversation at a Time

This week I had the pleasure of attending The Meetings Show in London, meeting so many fantastic event planners, venues, agencies and corporate professionals from across the UK.

It was brilliant to see first-hand how much businesses are investing in creating memorable experiences for their teams and clients. The conversations reinforced something I’ve always believed – the best events aren’t just organised, they’re experienced.

At Barrel & Bond, that’s exactly what I aim to deliver. Whether it’s a corporate networking event, team-building session, client entertainment evening or conference, every wh**ky tasting is designed to be interactive, engaging and memorable. Great wh**ky is only part of the experience; it’s the stories, conversations and shared moments that people remember long afterwards.

A huge thank you to everyone who took the time to stop by and chat. If we met at the show, I’d love to continue the conversation and explore how we can create something special together.

Here’s to new partnerships and exciting events ahead! 🥃

🥃 BIG NEWS… Barrel & Bond is heading to its very first festival! 🎪

This July, I’ll be bringing Barrel & Bond Wh**ky Tastings to the amazing — and honestly, I couldn’t be more excited.

If you know me, you’ll know I love bringing people together through wh**ky, stories, flavour, and a bit of fun — so the chance to do that at a festival feels pretty special.

I’ll be hosting relaxed, interactive wh**ky tastings throughout the weekend, giving festival-goers the chance to explore a curated range of whiskies, discover flavour profiles, learn a little wh**ky knowledge (without it ever feeling too serious 😅), and hopefully find a new favourite dram along the way.

Whether you’re completely new to wh**ky or already know your way around a bottle, there’ll be something for everyone.

Really looking forward to this one — if you’re heading to Deer Shed, come say hello and join me for a dram 🥃

One of the best parts about what I do is discovering wh**ky in places you wouldn’t expect…

Down in Falmouth, I stopped by and got stuck into their Hell’s Stones wh**ky 🥃

This one’s got real character — think rich, slightly smoky notes balanced with a touch of sweetness and spice. Not your typical dram, but that’s exactly the point. It’s bold, a bit rebellious, and properly memorable.

What I loved most was tasting it at the source. You get the full picture — the story behind it, the passion that goes into it, and how it’s meant to be enjoyed. That’s something you just don’t get off a shelf.

It’s a good reminder that wh**ky isn’t just about the big names — there’s a whole world of craft producers doing seriously interesting things if you’re willing to look for it.

And trust me… I’ll be bringing a few of these finds into future tastings 👀

Special shout out to and for a wonderful!

Not your average night at the barracks 🪖🥃

Had the pleasure of hosting a wh**ky tasting at an Officers’ Mess — and what a crowd. Properly engaged, full of questions, and up for exploring something new.

We travelled through a range of drams… but one stood out 👀
Hibiki Harmony made such an impression it earned a permanent spot behind the bar — not a bad result!

These are the nights I love — great people, learning something new, and a few standout whiskies along the way.

Shout out to for organising the evening!
