PLAN AROUND YOUR PEOPLE
YOUR GROUP. YOUR TASTING.
Private tastings generally start at 10 guests. We recommend booking well in advance to secure your preferred date. Dates are offered throughout the year, subject to venue availability and applicable licensing; ask us about December scheduling.
PERSONALIZED PRICING
CURATED TO YOUR BUDGET.
Every event receives a customized quote based on the number of guests and the whiskies or spirits selected. We generally price groups of up to 12 and groups of 13–22 separately to account for the full bottles required; larger groups can be quoted individually.
Responsible enjoyment: We cannot serve alcohol to guests who appear intoxicated. Anyone arriving visibly impaired will be unable to participate in the alcohol tasting.

ENJOY THE OCCASION
Enjoy guided discussion and tasting with time afterward to connect. Cheese and charcuterie are included in our standard private tasting format.

GOOD TO KNOW
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Do I need to know anything about whisky?
Not at all. Tastings are guided, approachable and designed for curious newcomers and enthusiastic whisky drinkers alike.
Are the bottles and prices the same every time?
No. The featured whiskies depend on the tasting format, availability and the agreed budget. Your quote and session details will confirm what's included.
Can I book a private or corporate group?
Yes. Private experiences generally begin at 10 guests and are quoted around your group size and selected spirits. Larger groups can be discussed individually.
Can you accommodate dietary requirements?
Let us know about dietary restrictions in your enquiry. We'll confirm what can be accommodated as part of your tasting proposal.
Where does the experience take place?
We confirm the venue and event setup when arranging your booking. Where NOX hosts the event, it remains an operating sports-bar venue and is not advertised as a separate private tasting room.
How long does a private tasting last?
The standard guided tasting is approximately 75–90 minutes, with around 30 minutes afterward for conversation. The exact programme may vary for different tasting formats.
