In celebration of the 550th anniversary of the first-ever known batch of whiskey, Chivas Regal hosted a pop-up Gentleman’s Lounge at the Park Tower Hotel in Knightsbridge. The Gentleman’s Lounge offered exclusive experiences associated with British gentlemen, including whiskey blending, shoe shining, cigars and an exclusive cocktail and dinner menu.
We headed down to the Hyde Bar for an evening of whiskey-fuelled fun and an insight into what the Gentleman’s lounge has in store. The evening began with a whiskey masterclass hosted by drink aficionado, Liam Scandrett, from The Drinkologists
Liam explained the subtle differences between the Chivas Regal 12, 18 and 25-year-old scotch whiskeys and shared details about what the ageing process entails.
