The World's Largest In Person Whisky Tasting

A Dram of Destiny

Picture a crisp morning in Edinburgh, the year 2026. Excitement drums through the air as 2,500 whisky lovers come together to do something extraordinary—break the world record for the largest whisky tasting. You can practically feel the buzz as people chat about smoky aromas, swirling amber hues, and the promise of making history.

Who Holds the Current Record?

Right now, the title belongs to a spirited group who gathered in Sweden (Yes Sweden) on 13th April 2019, where they achieved a record of 2268 participants. Their success has gone down in Guinness World Records history—but come 2026, we’re aiming to top it and claim that coveted spot for Scotland!

Here’s the challenge: will you be one of the few who get to raise a glass and etch your name into the record books? For a £50.00 donation, you’ll secure your place in this exclusive event. On the day of the attempt, you’ll pick up your special tasting kit at registration—three 25ml drams of premium whisky, a branded Glencairn glass, and a can of water to refresh your palate between sips. Under the expert guidance of industry professionals, you’ll be led through each dram’s unique notes and flavors, discovering the stories behind every drop. Meanwhile, representatives from Guinness World Records will be on-site to officially adjudicate this monumental achievement.

But it’s more than just an unforgettable tasting. After covering costs, every pound raised will go to charity, so you won’t just be making history—you’ll be making a difference. There’s no profit here—just a shared moment of camaraderie, generosity, and triumph.

Spots are limited to 2,500 participants, and they’re already filling up fast. Will you answer the call? Will you join this story destined to be told and retold in whisky circles for years to come?

Time is ticking, and the countdown to 2026 has begun. If you’re quick, you could be part of a brand-new world record. Sign up today, raise your glass, and help us carve out a new chapter of Scottish history—all in 3 amazing drams sip.
