Chocolate Week at the Scotch Malt Whisky Society

Free entry, 8.00am-11.00pm, 12 – 16 Oct 2009
The Scotch Malt Whisky Society,
London Members’ Rooms, 19 Greville Street, London, EC1N 8SQ

As part of Seventypercent’s Chocolate Week programme, the London member rooms of the Scotch Malt Whisky Society will be opening their doors to non-members for daily sampling of matching fine chocolate and Society whiskies.

The Society’s London rooms are the home of Seventypercent’s regular monthly connoisseur tastings. We share a mutual love affair for fine, single cask malt whisky and fine chocolate and have together chosen five unique combinations of cask strength whisky and matching chocolate, one each of which will be on sample from Monday to Friday of Chocolate Week.

Chocolate samples will be free, and the matching whisky will be served at normal Society bar prices, or you can choose from over a hundred of the Society’s other unique single cask bottlings and create your own matches.

You can also take advantage of a Chocolate Week Society membership special and receive four selected fine chocolate bars to go with the four whiskies in your membership pack, giving you the chance to experiment with your own chocolate and whisky combinations. (Applies to Soceity membership when purchased at the London member rooms during Chocolate Week.)
