The first Hungarian Whisky show took place in Budapest, on the 24th April, and it proved a bigger success than we expected. We received plenty of positive feedback, both at the event and through lots of e-mails on the internet. We would like to thank everyone, and those who helped, supported and especially to those who came and enjoyed themselves.
A few statistics: The show had 400 visitors. Of those, 239 sat through the various Master class seminars. The guests handed in 2100 whisky coupons, which means that they tried out around 5 whisky’s each. The best whisky at the Whisky show was the Glenfarclas, which is 30 years old. The best stand at the event went to exhibitor Pernod Ricard. In addition, two delighted visitors won a prize of two flight tickets to Glasgow.The musical programs also proved popular, while the round table discussions were accompanied by attention throughout. The Irish pub music in the evening saw guests dancing along to it. We hope that everyone enjoyed the event. We learned a lot about the whiskies. There were those whiskies, which most had never seen before, and even those that had been longed for a very long time.
