This fantastic opportunity to sample 3 whiskies for £10 in Belfast during Ireland's Largest Whiskey Festival is designed to ensure you don't miss a drop. Limited to 3 drams, these little sessions are open to anyone with an open mind. Each tasting is themed on Country or Regional Variations & Styles, Single Distillery Bottlings, International Brands, the best of Independent Bottlers or Irish Whiskey Styles.

What awaits you begins with a few simple pours — but that's only the start of the journey. If you're a real enthusiast or explorer of taste, you'd get to all of these tastings if you could.

With over 24 unique tastings to choose from, we're spoiling you with choice. Imagine coming to them all — it'll only set you back £30 a day!

Let's get out and about and explore our city too. You'll find these events within walking distance of each other, in three distinct locations. The Duke of York, nestled comfortably in the Cathedral Quarter, makes it handy to walk to both the Criterion Bar up at Carlisle Circus and across to Seatons of Sailortown. Stretch your legs and savour the whiskies.
