They will be £15. There will unfortunately be a small booking fee on top as the venue are dealing with the tickets. I expect that will be around £1.50.

Interesting, hope it all goes well and good luck.
If I had all the money I've spent on whisky, I'd spend it on whisky.

The line-up of exhibitors is already looking fantastic. I wonder, is 4 hours going to be enough?
Will Diageo have any managers choice on tasting do you think?
