Mark my words!<br /><br />@Helen - it was a fabulous event. Organised quite brilliantly.<br /><br />@Ollie - Tasting map is a good idea. It gives context and a frame of reference that stops you getting lost.<br /><br />@Mark - food and beer pairing is interesting. I got involved in one at the restuaurant show last year which was an eye opener. There is definitely scope to open this out much wider. Hop and Spice (Sri Lankan restaurant in Balham) do food and beer pairings on their menu. Islay whisky barrel finished beer with sushi sounds fascinating.Brownershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09494760235889452922noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4906220867589613765.post-31619779679985996492009-05-28T12:58:11.730+01:002009-05-28T12:58:11.730+01:00What a night - I'd love to do a whisky tasting lik...What a night - I'd love to do a whisky tasting like this, it sounds awesome! <br /><br />I'm really intrigued by pairing whiskies with foods. I've experimented with cheese and chocolate but not much else.<br /><br />As some beers (and I write about food and beer) are now getting aged in old whisky barrels I like the links between beer, whisky and foods. One of the best matches I've found is a smoky Islay whisky (or Islay cask aged beer) with sushi. Really good.Mark Dredgehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11421095862178324693noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4906220867589613765.post-42660486741317474752009-05-28T11:13:59.098+01:002009-05-28T11:13:59.098+01:00This sounds brilliant.
