Exciting one for us this!
Our final event to cap off the Warwick Pub Fest 2026 weekend
On Monday the 31st of August we will be having our very first whisky tasting night! Hosted by John Simmonds
This will be a ticketed event costing £30pp (plus booking fee). As the poster shows this will be a WW2 themed tasting and will feature three whiskies from the axis and three from the allies.

We will be open Monday from 12:00 until 5:30 when we will close to set up for this tasting beginning at 6:30

Limited to just 24 tickets for this as everybody needs a seat and space at a table.

We’ve been to three of John’s events over the past year or so and they’ve all been cracking, always featuring some special, rare, or hard to find whiskies.
