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.
