Join the Whisky-Online Auctions team and our special guest star Lee 'Connas' Connor for a three-part series of First Cask whisky tastings hosted on Zoom. Each event will feature seven rare vintage drams bottled over 20 years ago. This exciting line-up has been selected from Whisky-Online Auctions’ private stock especially for this unique series of virtual whisky tastings.
The tastings will take place on the following dates:
You don't have to join all three tastings, but if you do want to take part we recommend securing your tickets as soon as possible to avoid disappointment.
All 21 First Cask whiskies chosen for this one-off series of tastings were originally released by a little-known independent bottler called Direct Wines (better known for supplying wine rather than whisky, as you might have guessed), who bottled a staggering array of vintage whiskies in the nineties and noughties under the First Cask label... but let’s not get ahead of ourselves. Find out more about First Cask’s history on the night…

2 bottles of this lovely single malt were bought as gifts. Sampled a couple of drams from one bottle and it went well above expectations. The quality, integrity, natural colour, cask strength ABV and value-for-money made these bottles 'no-brainers'.
Present us with more of these quality bottles at fair prices...and we'll buy more.
This is a heavily sherried dram that tastes of dates and raisins with a touch of honey and vanilla. It’s pretty soft and smooth without water but a few drops seem to thicken it up slightly and add hints of caramel. Absolutely gorgeous.
