Whisky Tasting at the Portland Highland Games

This year, we have a rare opportunity to explore different regions of Scotland’s Whisky’s.
We will have three Whiskey Tastings sponsored by IMPEX Beverages Inc. (https://impexbev.com) in Portland, Oregon
Just a reminder: Each tasting is an additional $50.00 per person in addition to the price of your game ticket.
1) The first tasting, at 11:00, will explore five different regions of Scotland, various styles, production methods, and cask finishes.

It will feature GlenAllachie (Speyside), Nc’nean (Highlands), Isle of Raasay (Campbelltown), Lochlea (Lowlands), and Kilchoman (Islay).

2) The second tasting at 1:00 PM is “For Peat’s Sake.”
Taste a variety of peated scotches from different regions and varying levels of peat. Explore how peat differs depending on peating level and where distilleries source it. We will feature Kilchoman Port Askaig, Ardnamurchan, Meikle Toir, and Elements of Islay.

 
3) The third and, alas, the last tasting at 3:00 PM is “Sherry Baby.”
Taste an array of scotches aged in sherry wine casks, bringing sweetness and richness to your favorite whiskies. Explore different levels of sherry finishing and maturation and various sherry types. We will feature GlenAllachie, Kilchoman, Isle of Raasay, Ardnamurchan, and Elements of Islay.
 
To clarify, we will feature a few of the same distilleries in various expressions and years.
