The International Whisky Festival in The Hague is a fantastic event for whisky enthusiasts! This year, it will be held from November 15th to 17th, 2024 at the Grote Kerk.
Upon entering the Grote Kerk, you will receive a tasting glass so you can enjoy the offered whiskies at various stands. There are many free whisky samples, known as drams in Scottish. If you want to taste more exclusive/older whiskies, a fee will be charged by the standholder. This can only be paid with ‘drams’, the festival currency. You can buy this festival currency at the organization desk: 1 dram = 1 euro.
During the festival, you can enjoy:
- Tasting sessions: Each session lasts 4 hours, where you can sample a variety of whiskies.
- Masterclasses: Learn from experts and taste 4 to 6 different whiskies.
- Whiskytrails: Guided tours around the festival floor.
- Special bottlings: Exclusive whiskies available for purchase.
- The Hague Whisky Tram: A unique tram ride through The Hague with a whisky in hand.
It’s a great opportunity to explore and enjoy the world of whisky in a beautiful setting. Are you planning to attend?
