It was a wonderful evening in a great atmosphere. We were a small family group so that a warm atmosphere was created. Lars the course instructor was an almost inexhaustible source of knowledge. You could feel the joy and passion that is inherent in this man. All in all, a successful evening that was a lot of fun and expanded my knowledge of whiskey. Thanks Lars, it's best to leave everything as it is, because it was perfect that way.

A 4-hour whiskey tasting and the time flew by in no time! After an introduction, you could put together your own tasting and choose between whisky/gin/rum. Harmonious little group and Lars accompanied us excellently through the evening! Happy to find you again and soon at Ballindamm.

Lars met the owner at the trade fair in Erfurt and it was immediately apparent that this man was passionate about what he does. Great advice and got to know great rums and now you're a regular customer and when it's convenient, he even brings you the order in person. More is not possible. But there's finally a tasting in the Nest next.:)

Very great evening with lots of information about whisky/whiskey and much more, the basis is 6 noising glasses over the course of the evening, the content of which you can choose from the inventory, i.e. no pre-defined distillates, but everyone has almost free choice, thank you for that!

The whiskey tasting was really fun and was also very educational. A lot of choice not only of whiskeys, but also of gin and rum. In addition, a super nice owner who is available to advise you.

Accidentally stumbled upon the small shop in Grindel. Great and heartfelt advice, as well as a huge selection of gin, rum and whiskies. I was looking for a whiskey, which I also received. I felt immediately welcomed and am impressed. This was not the last visit here and is highly recommended.

We had a great whiskey tasting, with delicious food from the Italian restaurant next door and a really great explanation of all the varieties and details. Lars is a great host and his store is very well furnished. We would love to come back for rum & gin!

Clear recommendation! We had a phenomenal evening and enjoyed ourselves in a very dignified way. Extremely competent advice and a selection - I felt like a child in a candy store. I'm sure I'll be back soon, there is still so much more to discover.
