Whisky Night
with David McNicoll
Join Whisky Specialist David McNicoll on an incredible journey through the early history of Scotch Whisky and how the distilleries got their names.
The event is really open to all and includes a Q&A session—your chance to ask anything about Single Malts, Blends, Brands and the people who made the whisky industry.
David will be pouring a couple of whiskies to bring the story to life.
There will also be a chance to get a signed copy of his book, The Language of Whisky.
Free to attend | No registration required.
About David McNicoll
David McNicoll was born and raised in the Scottish Highlands. David moved to America in 2010, and has represented several Scotch whiskies as Brand Ambassador in New York. As well as whisky, he was also the Market Manager in NYC for Brockmans Gin before moving to work with a local distiller in Jersey City, Corgi. In early 2020 David published his first book on the subject of Scotch, The Language of Whisky, which looks at the individual whisky names and their meaning, and how Scotch fits in with the cultural heritage of Scotland. In addition, he hosts night-classes in the history of Scotland and freelances as a whisky specialist in private tasting sessions across the city.
David retains close connections with friends and family back in Scotland; and returns when he can – especially in the capacity as a member of the last private regiment in Europe, the Atholl Highlanders: a ceremonial guard raised by the Duke of Atholl. He is married to an American lass and has eight-year-old twins to keep him on his toes.
