Past Simply Whisky Events:

“Simon and Franchi are a truly entertaining duo who filled the evening with laughter, stories and of course, our glasses! They are both very professional throughout the tasting and impressively attentive to our needs and sensitivities. The whisky selection was well suited and we had the opportunity to taste some of the finest whiskies imaginable. We pass our gratitude and would certainly have them back.” Tasmyn Strick, Votive Communications Ltd

Our guests warmed to them immediately and thoroughly enjoyed themselves as a result – even the ones who professed to be non-whisky drinkers! A great blend of education and entertainment. I would recommend them to anyone.” Steve Cox, Marketing Director, JCDecaux Airport

“After a long day of presentations, Simply Whisky was just what our delegates needed to unwind and socialise with one another. The guys both informed and entertained the delegates, who stayed longer than they intended just to ensure they didn’t miss out on tasting the exceptional whisky that was available! A big thank you to all those involved!”

Rachel Adams, Marketing Director EMEA, OpenX

As knowledgeable as they were entertaining , Simon and Franchi helped create a fantastic atmosphere that added a unique and memorable dimension to the event. Guests, regardless of their own whisky knowledge, found them highly amusing and easily accessible. I would strongly recommend anyone wanting to add an alternative and charismatic theme to any event to try out the boys at Simply Whisky!" Henry Bott, Business Development Executive, CBBC
