We had a virtual tasting with Highland Fern for a 40th and it was a huge success! They sent all the whisky and glasses to us prior to the event, and then lead us through a really great tasting. They are super knowledgeable and ensured the process ran as smooth as possible. Would highly recommend!

We had such a great evening with Highland Fern. Louis & Ewan were such a fun and passionate duo that everyone, from whisky lovers to whisky novices, had a great time and walked away with a whole lot more knowledge about all things Scottish Whisky.

Louis and Ewan are passionate and knowledgeable about the whisky they’re presenting at tastings. Their great banter and chat add to the experience, and their ability to answer questions, even novice ones, are a credit to how well they know their craft. Would not hesitate to attend another tasting or recommend them to others wanting to try a range of drams.

Ewan and Louis blew it out the park. Brought a wealth of knowledge backed by years in the whisky industry. Very personable and eager to make the experience special. Chose the bespoke package and they treated us to some very special whisky that would otherwise be hard to come by in New Zealand. Cannot recommend these guys enough, fantastic for a special event or birthday present for a whisky lover. 10/10
