On Friday 2nd February 2024 we were delighted to introduce a brand new addition to the COCO calendar... a virtual whisky tasting! And in 2025 we will be bringing this back... and IN PERSON!
Not once, but twice in February 2025 there will be the opportunity to raise a dram for brighter futures.
Join an exclusive in-person event on Sunday 2nd February on the edge of Newcastle upon Tyne, or choose the virtual event on 23rd February to enjoy your whiskies from the comfort of your own home. Each session will be led by COCO's whisky expert extraordinaire, Donald Reid, and will feature a selection of fantastic, unique whiskies from across Scotland.
This event raises funds for our overseas partnerships, allowing more access to vital education in remote areas of East Africa - thank you for supporting this!

We joined Donald over Zoom, where he guided us on each whisky's story, flavours and characteristics as we journeyed through 6 different samples, building in depth and complexity.
