08 March is International Women’s Day. To mark this, Hot Toddy is hosting a special whisky tasting led by whisky guide, Jule Lenzen.
Taking place in Hot Toddy’s cosy whisky lounge, guests will be guided through a carefully curated four-dram tasting experience, exploring the stories and craftsmanship behind each whisky, and the inspiring stories of women yesterday and today.
“It’s a fantastic chance to celebrate the women who defied the odds to shape Scotland’s history and to raise a glass to the women leading the whisky industry today,” (Jule Lenzen).
Located in Edinburgh’s historic Old Town, Hot Toddy was founded by Luca and Ben, two friends and local guides with a deep passion for whisky and Scottish heritage. This welcoming space can be enjoyed by both locals and visitors looking to immerse themselves in Scotland’s rich traditions, food and whisky.
