Tastings

Develop your appreciation of your chosen liquor at one of TT Liquor’s tastings. You will be hosted by one of our in-house connoisseurs who will guide you through the history of the liquid while you get to indulge yourself in a carefully curated selection of samples.

Tasting experiences can be hosted in our dedicated tasting vaults in the cellar bar, any of our lounges, or be taken to an external venue of your choice.

We have a range of dedicated event spaces in which to hold our tastings, Public Tastings are usually held for between around 10 and 20 people to ensure the most in-depth and interactive experience for all our guests but for private tastings we can accommodate up to 50 guests or even more with enough prior notice. Depending on class-size, you may find yourself in one of the following:

The Vaults
The former cells of the Victorian police station that once occupied our venue, now converted into intimate booths, perfect for smaller tasting sessions.

The Orangery
Our biggest event-space and studio, set amongst hanging plants and large windows, the Orangery is perfect for sunny days with its bright airy atmosphere. Its spacious, L-shaped layout means it’s the optimum room for our bigger tasting sessions.

The Cinema
Our Cinema features reclaimed tiered theatre-seating for up to 52 guests making it another great option for our larger tasting sessions.
