Whiskey blending is a lot harder than it looks. I know because I’ve tried it, and you can read about that here. I’ve also heard blenders in Cognac talking about how blending can make – or ruin – a brilliant cognac.

So I’m happy to include this press release explaining how the London branch of Buffalo Trace is offering people the chance to try their own hand at blending whiskeys in their London Tasting Room in November and December – the perfect present for the whiskey-lover in your life (even if that’s you!)

Press Release, London, November 2024

This winter, Buffalo Trace Distillery London is introducing the Art of Blending, an exclusive hands-on whiskey experience in the heart of Covent Garden. This immersive journey offers participants the chance to explore the art and science of blended whiskey.

In this interactive session, guests will delve into the nuanced world of blended whiskeys – demystifying what defines a blend and why it’s often misunderstood.

Under expert guidance participants will taste five Buffalo Trace Distillery whiskeys and use them to create three unique blends of their own, discovering firsthand how even the smallest adjustment can make distinctive changes.

From adding a hint of spice to balancing the finish or softening tones with a splash of water, guests will learn to fine-tune their own, personalized blends.

The line-up will include a variety of Buffalo Trace Distillery’s renowned expressions, including Chris Stapleton’s Award-winning Traveller Blended Whiskey (a *new* offering in London!).

Held in Buffalo Trace Distillery London’s Tradition & Change tasting room, The Art of Blending is designed as an intimate experience, limited to 10 guests per session for a more personalized approach.
