Whisky Live Sydney 2013

Very unique and informative event Whisky Live Dinner was held at the at the Four Seasons Hotel with world whisky expert Martine Nouet a French national based in UK. Martine spent weeks designing the menu with the head chef and what a match it turned out to be. Present were some prominent foodies and I got to meet Natasha from East Side Radio who has a food program on Saturday afternoons. The combination of scotch and Tasmanian whiskys with the Nant sherry wood matching perfectly with the chocolate plate divine. And during the weekend Sydney had great collection of whiskies to taste and buy, all under one roof at Paddington Town Hall. It was a fantastic treat to taste whiskies from traditional and new distilleries from around the world.
