The Whiskey Affair at the Great Hall, Reading University

Share on FacebookShare on Twitter

FOR some, it’s the water of life. For others it’s just a wee dram.

But all who came to a day devoted to whiskey were raising their glasses to the popular drink.

The Great Hall at the University of Reading’s London Road campus was home to Whiskey Affair’s festival on Saturday.

The aim of the event was to allow visitors to explore the world of whiskey, learning about grains, single malts and the perfect blend.

The event also featured live music and a range of speakers.

Organisers said the venue provided its most lavish backdrop yet, and they can’t wait to return next year.

” There was a continual buzz in the room and the sight of staff rushing to replenish stocks on the bar far quicker than we’ve needed to previously- the Reading crowd really knew how to get stuck in,” they said.

The festival will return next year.
