\"Ryan<\/a>If only it weren’t illegal to give kids booze, for the series of masterclasses coming up to explore the concept of taste through scientific experiments from Auchentoshan<\/strong> look set to make being a boffin cool again.Traditional whisky tastings, with their elaborate tasting notes unintelligible to all apart from the most hardened of spirit geeks are a bit passe these days, and so it\u2019s great to see Scotch producers like Auchentoshan<\/strong> turn things on their head with an altogether more modern approach.<\/p>\n

Having teamed up with the frankly genius Ryan Chetiyawardana<\/strong><\/em> with his innovative approach to cocktails, the creative coffee people DunneFrankowski<\/strong>, and the food experimentalists Rebel Dining Society<\/strong>, Auchentoshan<\/strong> are presenting a series of masterclasses in London and Glasgow that will help you understand and analyse your preferences to certain flavors. At \u00a315 a head to include whisky, cocktail and food tasting, these look set to be a must-visit event for fans of fine liquor, food and cocktails. Tickets are available from www.eventbrite.co.uk<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

\"Auchentoshan<\/a>For those unable to attend, the Auchentoshan<\/strong> Classic Julep<\/strong> will be a sure fire hit at summer barbecues.<\/p>\n

Add 1 bottle of Auchentoshan Classic, 2 bunches of mint, 200ml St Germain Elderflower Liqueur and 40g demerara sugar to a large bowl.\u00a0 Stir to dissolve the sugar then refrigerate for two hours before serving over ice with grapefruit twists.<\/p>\n
