About the show

On the Mountebank Comedy Whisky Tasting you will enjoy a flight of four delicious malt whiskies, each from a different distillery region of the country and each specifically curated to highlight the depth and difference of flavour Scotch malt whisky can offer.

You will learn about the distilling process as well as the fascinating history of whisky and its cultural significance to Scotland and its people. This is a 'hysterical and historical' whisky led by a professional comedian and historian with a deep knowledge and passion for whisky. Slàinte!

Award-wining Scottish comedian and historian of Scottish history Daniel Downie is a self-confessed 'whisky baw bag!' Indulge him as he delves into the fascinating and hilarious history of one of his, and Scotland's, greatest passions - Whisky. This is a show about 'drams' and 'dramas'.....the two often go hand in hand!
